Road conditions

Paved as far as Nicoya and Sámara. The last stretches into Nosara and Santa Teresa are still stone and gravel road, so your driver takes them slowly.

From your driver

This part of the country is slower than the map suggests - it is curves and small towns, not highway. Leaving early changes the whole trip.

“American canceled my flight and we ended up getting into Liberia later than expected and so my previous travel plans changed. Eddie was able to help me book a chartered van all the way to Nosara (3 hour drive) the night before for a very fair transport price. My drive with Carlos was 10/10.”
