We decided to remove some stress from our travel and booked Tropical Tours for a private,door to door, from the airport to our hotel in La Fortuna and back. The drivers arrived early on both trips, were very knowledgable about the area, and were very friendly. Highly reccommend their service!
We used tropical tours for our transfer from San Jose to La Fortuna (3 hours) and again from Monteverde to Tamarindo (3.5 hrs). Both times the drivers were so friendly and the journey was very pleasant, with no problems at all. Couldn’t recommend them anymore
We used tropical shuttles from San Jose airport to Arenal and then again from Arenal to Tamarindo. The driver was right on time, friendly, helped accommodate our large group and suitcases. The shuttle had WiFi which was helpful for such a long drive. On the longer drive the driver stopped for food and was wiling to stop for bathroom breaks. Would definitely use again!
Booked all my road travel with Tropical Tours. For $55/trip they took me from San Jose Airport to La Fortuna: La Fortuna to Monteverde; Monteverde to Tamarindo Beach (no service available from Tamarindo Beach to Manual Antonio); and from Manual Antonio back to SJO. Their vans are clean, comfortable, and air conditioned. Drivers are courteous and safe drivers. After about 1 1/2 hours they stop at a rest stop so you can stretch their legs. The most important aspect to me was their DEPENDABILITY. If you want worry-free and safe transportation this is the company to use.
On time pick up and the vehicle was very comfortable and clean. Also they have wifi on board. Will definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a private shuttle around San Jose/ La fortuna area. I think they also service other locations in CR. Pura Vida!
