Wood book a transfer again

Nosara to Liberia Shuttle. I was told by email I needed to go to the main road of my retreat which was a 25 min walk with a suitcase, however, on arrival to the front gate, it appears the driver was entering the retreat, so maybe I didnt need to sweat so hard. Easy to book the day before in off season, professional staff, clean and comfortable. They do hard work lifting bags on/off the vehicle all day. Cheaper than private shuttle!

Horrific experience.

I would not recommend using this shuttle service. They are not transparent about their routing, and upon boarding the shuttle I was informed it would go via Samara and then to Nicoya to then only switch shuttles before proceeding to Liberia. Their agent who I had to get on the phone with when the shuttle picked me up, was horrific, rude, and kept telling me I need to plan better and read instructions. I have never been spoken to like that on the phone before and I’ve travelled to 73 countries. I am native English and nowhere on the website does it state a different route from Nosara-Liberia Airport. Their customer service is below par, to date I have had my emails ignored and not received a refund for a service I did not use. I had a 1PM international flight, upon boarding an 8AM departing shuttle which takes 3,5hrs maximum, I was told when I got on the bus of the rerouting and that they would only arrive at 12:30PM. There are far more reputable shuttles from Nosara, with kind people. It costs nothing to be kind!

Helpful staff, quick service, reliable and very communicative

I took the shuttle from Nosara to the Liberia airport. Since there is a minimum of two people per shuttle (and I was traveling on a slow day), I paid the price for two passengers. This was still less than any other private car options. The trip was fast and uneventful. The driver even offered to stop at a market before the airport to save me some money on airport food 🙂 I especially loved how well the office staff communicated as I was arranging the ride. They responded more or less immediately to my questions and were very patient as I tried to figure out arrangements. I stayed at a private home in the hills, and had to get a ride to the main road to meet the driver. But this was just a small inconvenience. Over all, I would recommend. Thanks!
