Manuel Antonio to La Fortuna Private Transfer Air-Conditioned Van

Ground transport that stops when you need it to

A private minivan transfer from Manuel Antonio to La Fortuna seats up to six passengers with air conditioning, a bilingual driver, and hotel pickup and drop-off. The service includes one hour of free wait time, so you can pause for photos, meals or rest without running the meter. The driver navigates the route while you travel at your own pace.

The experience

The van picks you up at your Manuel Antonio hotel and takes you directly to your La Fortuna accommodation. Air conditioning runs the whole way, and the driver speaks both English and Spanish, so you can ask about the landscape, request stops, or simply travel in quiet. Wi-Fi is available inside the van if you want to stay connected during the drive.

One hour of free wait time is built into the service: use it to stretch your legs, grab a meal at a roadside restaurant, take photographs, or use a bathroom without extra charges. This flexibility means you're not locked into a fixed schedule the way a shared shuttle would be. The minivan holds up to six passengers, so a family or small group travels together in one vehicle with all their luggage.

Your driver is a Costa Rican professional trained in safe driving and familiar with the route. The minivan is well-maintained and air-conditioned throughout. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, so you don't arrange separate transportation to or from either property.
