Our driver, Francisco, was great! He was very friendly and made our journey from SJO to Manuel Antonio very comfortable. He pointed out various landmarks along the way and provided us with information about the area. I would definitely recommend this service!
Very good transportation company. Our driver Daniel met us outside the airport after we secured our bags from baggage claim. He was easy to find and very helpful. We used the same company for our return home. Our flight was delayed over an hour and the driver waited at our resort as we worked through the departure delay and potential flight cancellation. Again excellent experience on the ride back to Liberia airport.
Greeter and Drivers were so courteous and helpful. Everyone was punctual and they moved our return trip time to allow for road construction. They suggested wonderful places to stop for food and bathroom breaks. Everyone spoke fluent English. A very pleasant experience.
I used this company when I traveled to la fortuna and from. They were very nice and through my flight delay, they remained in contact with me. The shuttle waited extra time for me and I very much appreciated them for that! If I’d missed the shuttle, I would’ve lost time in La fortuna. They had WiFi (spotty bc most of the drive is remote) and A/C which you can control (like a plane). Little tip: if you have a habit of getting motion sickness, take Dramamine or likewise, and sit towards the front; the drive through the narrow winding roads at higher elevations, was a bit much. (Not complaining bc completely expected that drive :) )
Our driver, Jeffrey (?) was terrific. Turns out our flight was cancelled 1.5 hours before our pickup so we had to find a hotel quick. When he arrived, we told him of the change of plans and he was fine with it. The hotel was on the way to the airport. When we arrived, the hotel looked closed. He called the number on the door and made sure we were in before he left us.
From before we even arrived, I knew we were in great hands. Stephanie was an excellent communicator and immediately put me at ease.
Due to weather our flight was cancelled, rescheduled and changed at least 4 times. I reached out and Stephanie immediately assured me me that she had our arrival ready to change whenever arrived. That took so much stress off of us. Arrival day was chaotic, as international arrivals often are, but we knew exactly what to expect. Our driver would be waiting with a sign with my name, and Stephanie even checked in to make sure we connected without any issues.
Fernando, our driver, was outstanding. He speaks English very well and has a warm, natural conversational style that made the ride easy and enjoyable. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the region and answered all of our questions about agriculture, local industries, and how the economy works. The conversation was genuinely educational and helped us understand Costa Rica beyond just the tourist view.
I speak very rudimentary Spanish, and Fernando went out of his way to help me with pronunciation and basic words. He also pointed out practical things along the drive, like supermarkets, quick marts, and local equivalents to stores like Walmart and Home Depot, which was incredibly helpful for first time visitors.
What impressed me most was how engaged and intuitive he was. Knowing this was our first visit, he quickly picked up on what we were curious about and tailored the conversation around that. The drive was about an hour and a half, but it went by quickly because the experience was so engaging.
This was more than just transportation. It felt like a welcoming introduction to the country, and it set the tone for our entire trip. I would absolutely recommend this service and especially Fernando to anyone visiting Costa Rica for the first time.
We booked them for roundtrip and they are worth every penny (or colón). Thank you On The Road Costa Rica for impeccable service.
Excellent experience. I met the shuttle just past where the taxis are located. The bus was clean and air conditioned. The driver was very nice and extremely helpful. He took each person to their individual drop off point which I found very helpful. They also stopped midway for a bathroom break and a shopping opportunity. Great trip, great price, great service. I highly recommend.
Easy shuttle service from San Jose to La Fortuna with door to door drop off! Just can take a little while to pick everyone up and drop off depending on your destinations. One short pit stop about 40 mins prior to the end. Comfortable ride! Driver was chill.
Informed us of the pickup location. The driver was waiting for us at the Airport with a name sign. The driver was very courteous and pleasant. The vehicle was clean and had two bottles of cold water for us. The drive of 1.5 hrs was very smooth with safe driving.
When we landed he was waiting with a sign that had my name (I just love that :)). He had cold waters waiting for us. The ride was smooth. Our Airbnb was in the mountains. The ride up was very scary but our driver got us there! I booked with the same company when my family was leaving. They had to leave around 1a. He was there on time ready to take them to the airport. Thank you so much!
A little confusion at the airport but it was more me than the driver. Once we connected the drive was safe and the driver was friendly and professional. I have taken cabs from the airport and the experience can be hit or miss. This will be my go to transfer service in the future.
Jordan drove us from La Fortuna back to San José on an early morning ride. He made sure we had a stop for food along the way and carefully navigated safe alternate routes due to the weather. Thanks to his attentiveness, we made it safely and without any issues.
