Drive was long but ok.
San Jose traffic was crazy, plus it rained, which slowed things down. There was road construction, and the timing of the day put us in rush hour and school bus issues. But the driver was great, the car was comfortable, just a long trip.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! 😊 We truly appreciate your understanding regarding the traffic, rain, road construction, and rush hour conditions. We're glad to hear that you found our driver professional and the vehicle comfortable. We hope to have the opportunity to make your next journey in Costa Rica a smoother one!

Transport from San Jose to La Fortuna
Sara was so wonderful in helping us book our transport last minute from San Jose to La Fortuna, she made the process very seamless, easy, and stress free. She was extremely kind, communicative and eager to help!

Alsama Tour
Alsama Tours was the perfect company for this trip especially since we didn’t know anyone in Costa Rica. They helped book all of our excursions and from those excursions they included transportation and dining whether that was breakfast lunch or dinner. I am forever grateful for Sara especially because she’s been helping me plan my trip and was really helping when it came to choose what specific excursions I wanted to do.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind review! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the tour and had a great experience with us. It was a pleasure having you, and we hope to welcome you again on your next visit to Costa Rica. Pura Vida!

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quepos.
How much does Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos cost?
+
Prices start at $229 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quepos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quepos is not rushed.
Is Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Quepos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quepos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quepos and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quepos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Quepos?
+
On Outty we rank every Quepos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Waterfall Adventure, Manuel Antonio Canopy Tour - Longest Twin Zip Line in Central America, Manuel Antonio Park Tour and its Amazing Wildlife and Beaches. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Quepos?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Quepos?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Private Transportation San José To / From Manuel Antonio, Quepos?
+

+
