Why travelers choose a private transfer with us
On time, every time
Punctuality is the #1 thing travelers praise in a transfer — and the thing we build the whole operation around. Your driver is there before you are.
We watch your flight
Send us your flight number and we track it. Delayed landing? Your pickup moves with it and your driver waits — you're never stranded at SJO.
You always know what's happening
Fast answers on WhatsApp and email, written confirmation of every detail, and your driver's information before the trip. No silence, no surprises.
Honest travel times
We publish real door-to-door durations for every route — not marketing numbers. If a drive takes 3 hours, we say 3 hours.
Traveling with kids
Car seats are a first-class option in our quote form: tell us age and weight and we confirm the exact seat in writing before you fly.
Private means private
Your vehicle, your schedule. No waiting for a van to fill, no detours to pick up strangers, and stops on the way when you want them.

Frequently asked questions
How does the quote work?
Fill in the quote form with your route, date and group size. You get a written quote with the total price — usually within minutes during the day. No payment is taken to request it, and you're free to decline.
What if my flight is delayed?
We monitor your flight number and adjust your pickup automatically. Your driver waits for you — a late landing never cancels your transfer.
Do you provide car seats?
Yes. Tell us each child's age and weight in the quote form and we confirm the exact seat (infant, convertible or booster) in writing before your trip.
Can we make stops along the way?
Yes — short bathroom, coffee and photo stops are part of a private transfer. Longer stops (lunch, supermarket) are easy to plan: just mention them in your quote request.
I land after 1 pm — can I still reach La Fortuna or Monteverde today?
Yes. Most shared shuttles stop running in the early afternoon; a private transfer leaves when you land, whatever time that is. This is one of the most common reasons travelers book us.
