Excellent value for money!

We took the shuttle from Montezuma to Villareal (Tamarindo). It was a door to door service. The shuttle was on time, the drivers were friendly and drove very safely on a very difficult road. Our driver even stop at a view point for us to take a photo, and again when we came across monkeys :-). Maybe a bit more information about where and when we were going to stop would have been appreciated. A really fast and enjoyable to to travel between those two places.
