Prices and booking

Is the price per person or per vehicle?
The price is per vehicle, not per person — you travel privately with just your group. One flat rate covers the whole car, with taxes and tolls already included.
How do I book my transfer?
Pick your route on the homepage, see the price for the three vehicle sizes and pay online by card, or send us your route, date and number of passengers on WhatsApp. We confirm availability in minutes.
How can I pay?
You can pay by secure online payment link (credit or debit card) or in cash — US dollars or Costa Rican colones. Payment is in full at booking, and the price you see is the final price.
Can I cancel my reservation?
Yes — free cancellation up to 48 hours before your trip. Cancellations made less than 48 hours before pickup are non-refundable (100% charge). Just message us on WhatsApp and we take care of it.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least 24 hours ahead to guarantee availability, especially in high season (December to April). Last minute? Message us and we do our best.

Airports and flights

Do you pick up from both SJO and Liberia (LIR) airports?
Yes. We offer door-to-door private transfers from both Juan Santamaría (SJO) in San José and Daniel Oduber (LIR) in Liberia, to any major destination in Costa Rica. Not sure which airport to fly into?
What happens if my flight is delayed?
No problem. When you book, just share your flight number — we track it and adjust your pickup time so your driver is waiting when you land, at no extra cost.
How will I recognise my driver at the airport?
Your driver waits just outside the terminal with a sign showing your name. We also send you his name and phone number the day before, so you know exactly who you are looking for.
Do you drive at night?
Yes, 24 hours, with no night surcharge. Late arrivals and early-morning departures for a dawn flight are part of a normal week for us.

On the road

Is the service private or shared?
100% private. The vehicle is exclusively for you and your group — no strangers and no extra stops to pick up other passengers.
Can we make stops along the way?
Of course. Quick stops for the restroom, coffee or photos are included. On the Arenal routes we usually break the drive at Mi Rancho in Los Ángeles de San Ramón, and on the lake road at Café y Macadamia. Want a longer sightseeing stop with a guide? The VIP upgrade adds it for $80.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes, free of charge on request. Tell us your children's ages when booking and we have the right seats ready in the vehicle.
How much luggage can I bring?
Luggage is included — each passenger can bring a suitcase and a carry-on. Travelling with surfboards, golf clubs or extra bags? Just tell us and we assign the right vehicle. See the three vehicle sizes.
Do your drivers speak English?
Yes. Our drivers speak English and Spanish, know every route, and are happy to share tips about your destination.
Is it safe to ride on my own or in a small group?
Yes. You are in a licensed, insured private vehicle with a driver we know personally, door to door. Solo travelers write about exactly that in our reviews.
