A quiet, well-timed ride to Juan Santamaría airport, so your last hours in Costa Rica stay as calm as the first.
The final morning of a trip has its own rhythm: bags packed, a last look out of the window, the mind already halfway home. This SJO airport transfer is designed to keep that moment simple. A private driver collects you in San José and takes you to Juan Santamaría International Airport in Alajuela, with no shared shuttle, no detours for other passengers and no need to find a taxi at the last minute.
You choose where the ride begins. It can start at the reception of your hotel in San José, or at the car rental agency right after you return your vehicle at the end of a self-drive tour. Either way, the vehicle and driver are reserved for you and your travel companions alone.
When you book, you simply share your flight number and the pickup time you prefer. The departure is planned so that you reach the airport at least three hours before takeoff, in line with the usual recommendations for check-in and departure formalities. Please note that this private transfer to SJO serves Juan Santamaría airport only, not the airport in Liberia.
On your last morning in Costa Rica, there is no need to bargain for a taxi or watch the clock in a hotel lobby. Your private driver meets you at the time you chose, either at the reception of your hotel in San José or at the car rental agency, once you have handed back the vehicle at the end of your self-drive tour. Your luggage is loaded, and the vehicle is yours alone for the drive to Juan Santamaría International Airport in Alajuela. Departure is timed so that you reach the terminal at least three hours before takeoff, leaving comfortable margin for check-in and departure formalities. Your driver drops you at the airport, where our services come to an end. Pura vida, and safe travels home.
