Great Driver, Extremely Friendly and Kind, very helpful and gave us information on different things along the way I will tell other people about this experience
Great shuttle service — punctual, safe, and very professional. The driver was friendly and made the long ride comfortable and enjoyable. Would definitely book again!
Our transfer took over 5 hours, with no traffic. There was no expectations set for the rest stop or how long each passenger had to get back on the van. Allow yourself a whole day of travel if you go with this option. Driver was a good driver but it wasn’t fun sitting in the van over 5 hours.
Thank you for your feedback. We are glad to hear that you felt safe with our driver. We understand that the travel time was longer than expected. As a shared shuttle service, travel times can vary depending on passenger pickups, drop-offs, scheduled rest stops, and road conditions. At times, traffic can be slower than usual, which may increase the overall duration of the journey. We also appreciate your comments regarding communication about the rest stop and timing. Your feedback helps us improve the information we provide to our passengers. Thank you for traveling with us, and we wish you a wonderful time in Costa Rica.
The driver was very kind & driving was very smooth. We stopped at a very cool location for bathroom, some snacks and souvenirs! Exclamation service!
Excellent driver, on time service, very friendly. Drops each passenger at their individual hotel. Would book again!
Mario was much more than just a driver — he shared so many interesting things with us throughout the journey. He even made a small stop to show us a sloth he had spotted on the way earlier. It was such a pleasant trip thanks to him! Many thanks to Mario!”
We took the shuttle from San Jose to La Fortuna. Mario was our driver and he was incredible. Had so many facts and even stopped the van halfway so we could spot a sloth in the wild! He was very accommodating and tended to all our needs. Can’t recommend him and Volcano Tours enough!
Safe & patient driver. Siller was funny also. The communication prior was easy, responsive and accommodating.
