You get door-to-door service in a comfy van with AC, plus the freedom to stop along the way for snacks or photos. It’s an easy way to travel between Quepos and Puerto Jiménez without any stress.
We left our hotel in Manuel Antonio just after breakfast—bags packed, coffee still warm in hand. The driver greeted us with a quick “buenos días” and helped load our luggage into a spotless minivan. The AC was already running (a relief, since the humidity clings to you even at 8am). There’s something relaxing about not having to worry about directions or bus schedules; you just settle in and watch the palm trees flick past the window.
About halfway through, we asked for a quick stop. Our driver suggested a roadside fruit stand near Palmar Norte—he said their pineapple is the sweetest around. He wasn’t wrong; the vendor handed us slices right off her knife, sticky and cold. Back on the road, we passed through small towns where kids waved from bikes and you could smell wood smoke drifting from lunch fires. The whole drive took just under four hours, but it never felt rushed. If you want to pause for photos or need a restroom break, it’s no problem—they’ll work around your pace.
