TIPS ON UBER IN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC- some UBER drivers will try to charge you an additional fee in cash - which is NOT mandatory and could be considered a scam. For this reason, whenever ordering an UBER always reconfirm with the driver that the rate to pay at the end of the ride will be the one shown in the platform.
