Transportation in Costa Rica

We coordinate different transportation options to match your route, number of travelers and travel style, from shared services to private transportation with a driver, driver-guide, or separate driver and guide.

The way you travel is also part of the journey

At Green Stone Adventures, we coordinate different transportation options according to your route, number of travelers and travel style.
 

You can combine shared services, car rentals, domestic flights or private transportation within the same itinerary, helping make each transfer comfortable and practical for the journey ahead.
 

For travelers who prefer a more accompanied experience, we also offer private transportation with a driver, driver-guide services in cars and minivans, or a separate driver and guide for groups traveling in larger vehicles.

Shared Shuttle Between Destinations

Shared shuttles are a practical way to travel between some of Costa Rica’s main tourist destinations without having to drive.

The service is shared with other travelers and operates on established routes and schedules, with pick-up and drop-off at hotels or designated points depending on the destination.

At Green Stone Adventures, we can coordinate the different shuttle segments within your itinerary and combine them with other transportation services when needed.

 

Ideal for: independent travelers, couples and anyone looking for a comfortable way to travel between destinations without booking private transportation.

Car Rental for Traveling at Your Own Pace

Renting a vehicle allows you to explore Costa Rica more independently and adjust your travel schedule according to your preferences.
 

We can coordinate different vehicle categories based on the number of passengers, luggage and the characteristics of your route.
 

When the itinerary requires it, 4x4 vehicles are also available.
 

This option is especially convenient for travelers who prefer to drive themselves, make stops along the way and enjoy greater freedom when planning each day.
 

Ideal for: couples, families and independent travelers looking for greater flexibility during their trip.

​Domestic Flights

Domestic flights can be a useful option for reducing travel time between certain regions of Costa Rica.

At Green Stone Adventures, we can coordinate domestic flights as part of your itinerary and combine them with the necessary ground transportation before and after each flight.

This makes it possible to connect distant destinations more efficiently while keeping the entire journey properly coordinated.

Ideal for: travelers with limited time, itineraries covering distant regions, or those who prefer to reduce long overland transfers.

Private Transportation with Driver

We can coordinate private transportation with a driver for both point-to-point transfers and multi-day journeys.

Depending on the number of passengers and the characteristics of the trip, the service can be provided in cars, minivans, minibuses or buses.

For specific transfers, the driver operates the service from point to point according to the agreed schedule. For private tours, it is also possible to have the same driver for part or all of the itinerary, providing greater continuity, coordination and comfort throughout the journey.

This option allows you to travel without having to worry about driving and makes it easier to organize schedules, luggage and planned stops along the route.

Ideal for: private transfers, families, groups of friends and multi-day journeys.

Vehicle or Minivan with Driver-Guide

For couples, families and small groups, part or all of the journey can be arranged with a driver-guide in a car or minivan.

This option combines driving with tourist assistance, allowing the same person to accompany travelers throughout the route, help coordinate timing, make planned stops and provide information about the destinations visited.

It offers a more personalized and flexible experience, especially on private itineraries where travelers want to make better use of each transfer and maintain continuity over several days.

Ideal for: couples, families and small groups who want to combine private transportation and tourist assistance in a single service.

Driver + Guide for Groups

For larger groups traveling in higher-capacity vehicles, we recommend having a professional driver and a separate guide.

This allows the driver to focus exclusively on the road and the operation of the vehicle, while the guide accompanies the group, coordinates activities, provides information and assists travelers throughout the journey.

This setup is especially useful for organized groups and multi-day itineraries, as it provides better coordination and a more complete travel experience.

Ideal for: medium and large groups, organized tours and multi-day group itineraries.
