Taxi from Punta Cana Airport
Taxi from Punta Cana Airport (PUJ): what the taxi stand costs, how it works, and how a pre-booked private transfer with a fixed price per vehicle compares.
You can take a taxi from Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) without booking ahead: taxis wait outside arrivals and are run by third-party operators. Fares to the main resort areas usually range from about $25 to $59 per vehicle, and you agree the price with the driver or dispatcher before you get in. If you would rather have the price fixed before you land, you can pre-book a private transfer with Vacations Taxis.
Airport Taxi or Pre-Booked Transfer?
- Airport taxi: no booking needed; price agreed on the spot; no flight tracking, so nobody is waiting for you if your flight is late.
- Pre-booked private transfer: price per vehicle fixed when you book; your flight is tracked; your driver meets you with a name sign; free child seats on request.
