Trying to plan a trip for 5-7 days to CR that includes the Arenal Area for a couple nights preferably and 3-4 nights at a resort OR somewhere with decent golf nearby and some sort of train ride during the trip. Arenal doesn't appear to be an issue but the rail travel does. Can anyone point me in the right direction? It would be incredible if I could arrange rail travel between the two areas but again, not finding much information online. Kind Regards and any help/suggestions are gratefully appreciated!

There are no passenger rail lines in Costa Rica unfortunately. Unless you count the commuter trains operating in the San Jose area. I'd suggest the white water rafting perhaps if you want to do something different. You can get picked up in Arenal and end the day in San Jose or Puerto Viejo.

Hi. My boyfriend and I are planning a trip to the Caribbean Coast in September. We would most likely be flying into SJO. Is a car necessary in PV to get around? If so should we rent a car in SJ and drive the 5 hrs there or get a private transfer? Can we rent a car in PV?

I personally feel like the South Caribbean coast is best explored on a bicycle and on foot with buses and taxis or tuktuks to supplement. If you do want your own transport for a particular day or outing then cars, bikes, golf carts and scooters are all available to rent locally. It will partially depend on where you elect to stay. There are tons of restaurants and shopping in town as well as in Cocles and a nice selection of services in Playa Chiquita. Cahuita is self contained but you'll need a bus or taxi or car to get to Puerto Viejo and the further southeast communities. Manzanillo and Punta Uva or accommodations up Margarita Rd are more difficult without a vehicle. Hope that helps!

Hi. I am traveling to PV in six weeks and I'm considering traveling by bus from San Jose but I'm concerned about whether there is a restroom on the bus. Does the bus have facilities onboard or make stops?

No bathroom but there is a stop in Limon where you can use the restroom.

Hi there we leave PV on March 20th to arrive in Alejuela before a 6.00 flight on the 21st SJO
We have two large suitcases and want to travel with at least hassle as possible
What would you suggest ?

Well for a 6am flight you could either leave the afternoon before on the afternoon shuttle from Caribe Shuttle or MyPinkBus and have them bring you to an airport hotel. Or you can maximize your time on the coast and book a private transport leaving at something like midnight and go straight to the airport. With large luggage either of those options is probably easier than the public bus.

My girlfriend and I will be in Puerto Viejo for 9 days. Then we are meeting some friends in Playa Hermosa on the Pacific. What type of transportation would recommend for us to get to the Pacific?

That's going to be tough to get there in one day. You're going to have to go via San José or Arenal. One suggestion which might make it fun is to book a rafting trip with pickup in Puerto Viejo and dropoff in Arenal spend the night in Arenal then the next day take a shuttle from Arenal to Hermosa. If you don't want to do the rafting you could get to Arenal with a shuttle too.
Alternatively take a bus or shuttle or Sansa flight to San Jose then a bus to Liberia (plus taxi 27 km to Hermosa) or shuttle San Jose to Hermosa.
If you want to go with rafting or shuttles, feel free to email us at info@puertoviejosatellite.com and we'll have one of our travel experts book whatever works best for you.

Hi, my daughter and I have a flight out of SJO on March 6. Our flight leaves at 2:11pm. The shuttle leaves PV at 6am. With the construction on Route 32, will we make our flight. We don’t have to check bags, if we get to the airport by 1:00pm we should be okay. Thoughts?

In theory you should be fine. The 6am shuttle will get you to the airport by noon if all goes well. At the end there is always a certain risk you have to be willing to take if you travel the day you depart. But if all goes well and you for sure do not have to be at the airport 2 or 3 hours prior departure, you should be fine with this shuttle.

Hello! We’re landing at 5.30 pm at San Jose on the 27th of December and are going to Puerto Viejo - what is the best option for us? I see on the schedules there is nothing running after 6pm - is there any option we can book (is it safe?) or do we have to spend the night in San Jose? Thank you!

At that hour your options are overnight in San Jose or book a private driver. I don't recommend driving yourself at that hour if you were considering a rental car.

Hello, arriving in SJO Christmas morning. Will buses be running that day to Puerto Viejo de Talamanca?
Thank you!

MEPE generally runs some service on that day but they may not run all buses. I haven't seen them post a holiday schedule yet unfortunately.

I am arriving Dec 27 st San Jose going to Puerto viejo. Is the shuttle at the airport or do I just grab a taxi to bus station? How much should I expect to pay for taxi? Do I book ahead for shuttle? Thank you.

Airport Express transfers are at the airport terminal, the other companies such as interbus are a 3 minute taxi ride away. All shuttles must be booked in advance. For the public bus, you would take a 30 minute taxi to bus station near downtown San Jose.

Great. Would you suggest airport Express or internus?
