Daytrip offers a perfect solution for every budget and travel style - a shared shuttle departing five times a day with a small group of up to 10 passengers, or a private car where you're in charge of the itinerary and schedule. Both options will get you from Jaco to Manuel Antonio, door-to-door, in about 1 hour 18 minutes in unmatched safety and comfort.

“Last minute plan change and Daytrip was our last resort so I chatted with them and had an immediate response from a real person, best situation ever. Never used Daytrip before but the reviews were incredible so we took the chance and booked a driver at like 11-12pm and by 7am the next morning when we woke, they found us a driver and the driver had already texed us making contact! Very impressed and will definitely use them again. We went from Dubrovnik, Croatia to Tivat, Montenegro.”

He arrived in an appropriate vehicle and loaded and unloaded all of it. We are very happy with out decision to book with Daytrip.”
