Questions about this transfer

How much is the San José to Cahuita transfer?

From $325 per vehicle, not per person: the fare covers 1 to 4 passengers. From the 5th passenger there is a flat surcharge of $10 each, the same for every destination. Prices are quoted without the 13% VAT, which is added at the end.

How long does it take to get to Cahuita?

About 4 h for roughly 208 km, depending on traffic and weather. It is a private service, so the vehicle leaves when you do and stops only where you ask.

Where do you pick us up?

Door to door: your hotel, the airport or any address in the Greater Metropolitan Area of San José. The driver waits for you at arrivals if it is an airport pickup.
