The Experience

“Just look for umbrella number 5,” our driver texted, and honestly, I was still half asleep from the flight when we landed at SJD Airport. It’s weird how airports always smell like a mix of coffee and jet fuel, but outside it was just warm air and that salty ocean thing. We found the umbrella (took me a second—there’s a lot going on out there), and there was this guy waving with a sign and a big grin. He introduced himself as Carlos. I liked him immediately—he had that easy way of talking, not pushy or fake. He even helped us with our bags before I could protest.

The car looked almost brand new—no weird smells or sticky seats—and the AC was already running, which felt like heaven after standing in that heat for five minutes. My partner kept peeking out the window at the palm trees while Carlos told us about his favorite taco spot in San José (I wrote it down; still haven’t tried it yet). The drive itself didn’t take long—maybe 20 minutes? There was music playing quietly, something local but mellow. At one point, I realized I’d stopped worrying about anything at all. I mean, you know those first moments in a new place where you’re just relieved someone else is handling things?

On the way back to SJD Airport a few days later, Carlos showed up early (again) and remembered our names—which made me laugh because I’m terrible with names myself. He checked if we wanted music or silence (we went with silence this time; too early for tunes). There’s something comforting about those last quiet minutes before flying home—I still think about that calmness sometimes when travel gets chaotic. So yeah, booking a private transfer from SJD Airport to San José just made everything easier than I expected.
