Getting around Puerto Plata is fairly straightforward. Taxis are readily available for longer distances or trips to nearby attractions, though agreeing on a fare beforehand is wise. For shorter trips within the city, 'motoconchos' (motorcycle taxis) offer a quick and affordable option, but exercise caution. Renting a car provides the most flexibility for exploring the wider Puerto Plata region and neighboring towns, but be prepared for local driving styles. Public 'gua-guas' (minibuses) are the most economical way to travel between towns, offering a true local experience.
