Yes! Book a private, door-to-door airport transfer with a local English-speaking driver. Enjoy fixed and transparent pricing, no hidden fees, and the option to pay in advance without the hassle of exchanging cash at a foreign airport.
You will receive the vehicle that best fits the number of travelers in your group, ranging from a sedan to a van for groups of up to 7. Depending where you travel, you can book anything from a sedan comparable to a Toyota Corolla to a Mercedes V-Class to a Classic Cuban Car. While the exact model may vary, we always ensure that the vehicle provided meets your needs in terms of safety, reliability, and comfort. You may be upgraded to a larger vehicle class free of charge depending on availability. Since our largest vehicle seats 7, for groups larger a combination of vehicles will be used. We will send you the exact vehicle details a few days before your trip.
Everywhere except the USA, drivers will supply appropriate child seats (just let us know during booking). In the USA, certain states require you to supply your own child seats.
Not at all. The bay is known as one of Costa Rica's top wind and kite surfing spots thanks to steady seasonal winds, but a small island and rocky point keep the water flat even when it's blowing, making it just as good for swimming or simply relaxing on the sand. Watching kiters glide across the bay is part of the scenery, even if you never strap in yourself.
Liberia, the region's main travel hub, sits about 70 km (44 miles) south of La Cruz, a private transfer of roughly 1 to 1.5 hours depending on traffic. From beach towns further south like Tamarindo, plan on around 132 km (82 miles), typically 2 to 2.5 hours each way. A private driver covers that distance in comfort, with flexibility to stop along the route instead of watching a bus schedule.
Yes, if you enjoy tropical dry forest and wildlife. The park protects one of the last large stretches of dry forest in Central America, with short, well-marked trails that pass streams and lead to La Casona, a historic hacienda tied to Costa Rican history. Watch for deer, howler monkeys, and abundant birdlife along the way. Since it sits along the same route north from Liberia, it pairs naturally with a Bahía Salinas itinerary.
Tucked along Costa Rica's northern Pacific coast, La Cruz overlooks Bahía Salinas, a wide bay ringed by cliffs, white-sand coves, and dry forest hills. Unlike the busier beach towns further south, this stretch of Guanacaste stays quiet and largely undeveloped, so you get dramatic coastal views and open beaches without the crowds. It's an easy way to experience a genuinely different side of Guanacaste in a single day.
Playa Rajada is the highlight, a crescent of white sand framed by rocky cliffs that's ideal for swimming and photos, with the quieter Playa Rajadita right next door. Add a stop at a bay viewpoint to take in the full sweep of Salinas Bay, then spend some open-air time on the wind-swept shoreline. A half day comfortably covers the main sights, leaving room to pair the visit with a nearby stop like Santa Rosa National Park.
The bay sits within a protected marine area known for dolphins, sea turtles, and, during certain months, migrating humpback whales passing offshore. Inland, the dry forests around La Cruz and Santa Rosa National Park stay active with birdlife, monkeys, and other wildlife, making this coastline a rewarding stop for nature-minded travelers, not just beachgoers.

So, so happy I stumbled upon this website to book two private transports while visiting Lima, Peru. They were both one-way trips approximately 3 hours in length. Great communication as soon as everything was booked via email and I then downloaded their app. I had a few issues with the app and the customer service was awesome trying to assist me in getting it corrected. Honestly impressive customer service which gave you a positive feeling that you made the right choice. Both drivers were right on time - No issues whatsoever! Can't say enough about the service and ease of everything when travelling so far away. Great job to the daytrip team! Would strongly recommend.
