An excellent transportation company. They always arrived early and helped us with the luggage. We also booked tours to Paloverde national park and Rincon De La Vieja which were also excellent. We received a discount on the tours since we also booked airport transportation. We would definitely use them again

The guy was cool and helpful. Explained the culture along the way. Was funny. Would recommed 100% can't wait to come back
Great service. On time, cordial, friendly etc.
Driver On time. Made contact day before transfer to confirm details of pick up. Easy online booking.
Luis was our driver from Playa Negra to Liberia airport. He was on time and very professional. We had a great conversation and Luis was very respectful and friendly. We hope Luis picks us up when we return.
Our drivers to and from the airport to Tamarindo were great! They were both early to pick us up and offered to stop for us to go to an ATM or to get food. It was really nice.
We used this company to transfer us from LIR to Playa Negra. The driver was excellent and very helpful (offered to stop at a supermarket on the way!), the van was clean and well maintained with functioning seatbelts, and the whole booking process was easy with excellent communication.
We had a great experience with our transfers from the Liberia airport to our resort in Tamarindo. They were excellent with communication. Our drivers both ways were polite and on time. We would use them again and highly recommend this service.
4.8/5 It would have been great if the sprinter was cooled down for our arrival and departure but nonetheless the service was great for a 1hr ride to Tamarindo for a party of 10 (5 couples) Will be booking again and referring to other travel agents as well for their clients. Adding champagne was a great touch!
Driver was on time and drive was smooth. They were very accommodating to the exact pickup location and time!
Verny is an excellent driver and tour guide. First time to CR and we got a great informational brief on the country and the area we were going. Highly recommend Verny as a driver.
Highly recommend for transfer to and from the airports. They were very prompt and the vehicle was clean and nice. Great price also.
BUYER BEWARE!! Worst company ever! I paid exta for a private transfer for my daughter & I from the Liberia Costa Rica airport to the Riu Guanacaste and the driver stopped to play the lottery while leaving us alone in the van where we had no idea of where we were. He then spent the whole ride complaining to us about how poor he was and how little he is paid so that we would tip him more. Very uncomfortable and didn't feel safe!!
Driver didn’t speak good English and did not stop like I asked for a quick break. Van was comfy but not very clean
Excellent service. Would recommend Carlos and the services of Guanacaste Viajes. Carlos Ponse was Polite and very helpful. He is a careful and safe driver. Speaks excellent English. Booking process from uk was strait forward and Melissa & Guanacaste Viajes are excellent communicator’s. Thank you for your services.
Manuel and Daniel were Great! Explained us a lot about Costa Rica and its culture. They were on time and kept us updated per mail.
Aaron was great! Highly recommend him, excellent driver and very friendly. He met me where he said, and allowed me to wait under shelter from the rain, while he retrieved the van and loaded the luggage. Great experience!
Fabian was there at the airport waiting for us with a sign with name and we arrived right on time to our destination. It couldn’t have been easier and the car ride ran smoothly. I highly recommend this company
Our driver from Tamarindo to Liberia airport arrived on time. He was a courteous and good safe driver. The van was clean.
Juan Guillermo was a great communicator and arrived early! He was very safe and helpful! The ride was air conditioned and comfortable.
When we landed, we spent roughly an hour with customs and baggage claim. Our driver was incredibly patient and communicated with us via whatsapp. I am unsure if I would recommend this for older people. There is a lot of quick starting and stopping. If you’re with younger people, it’s very safe and super fun! Love chatting with our driver.
Carlos was awesome. He is a very good Driver gives you necessary information for first time person in Costa Rica and heads up on best shopping places and such so you don't end up paying to much for random things.
We used Guanacaste Viajes and Tours for our transportation between the airport and the RIU. Our driver to the resort was Erick and to the airport was German. Both did a great job. Very safe, and a great job of navigating all of the obstacles on the road to the Riu resorts. When both drivers found out I could speak some Spanish, then they did most of their commuincating in Spanish. I was thrilles and it was great practice for me. But when needed, they also had no problem speaking English. Would highly recommend them.
Very organized company and transported us to and from the airport safe and sound. Emails were provided as updates giving us the driver's name and car information and let us know when the driver had arrived. Overall a great experience
We have used them before and had good service with on time pick ups and vans cars. My only complaint is the van on this trip had a very weak ac. It could hardly keep up on a hot Costa Rica day. The driver was great.
Prompt on-time service with a friendly driver. The vehicle was well maintained. Our only critic is that it was a bit small for 4 passengers and as such we would have preferred a van instead of an SUV
On time and friendly service. I would definitely use again. Large vans with A/C make you feel safe when traveling through Costa Rica.
Miguel is very friendly and accommodating. Excellent driver who conscientiously avoided potholes and slowed down over speed bumps. Highly recommend this service.
Early pick up from our hotel, good driver and and nice van transportation from Tamarindo to LIB airport
My driver was very patient, friendly, and knowledgeable. My flight was late but he was there waiting when I arrived.
Timely pickup, clean car, friendly and safe driver (Erik), what more can you want from a transport company? We loved the ride! Wouldn’t hesitate to use them again.
Took a private tranfer by taxi, somewhat cheaper, more convenient than shuttles...it was safe and efficient.
We shuttled from our place in Hacienda Pinilla to Liberia airport. Service was excellent. On time (a few minutes early even). Comfortable new vehicle with lots of room. Safe, efficient, polite driver. We will be using many more times and trying some of the tours as well
This is my fifth trip to Costa Rica, and the fifth time that I have used Manuel and Guanacaste Viajes. They continue to excel in transportation in Costa Rica. Once again they showed up at the airport early, and were awaiting our arrival.. great communication with the driver, texting you where they are at, but also a picture of what they look like, saves you from searching through the 100 drivers, trying to get your business , when you walk out of the terminal. Prompt professional courteous, you just can't ask for more in a transportation company. Once again Manuel, thank you for the excellent service, and thank you Jose for being such an excellent driver. We look forward to our next trip with you guys.
Friendly driver, air-conditioned car & provided us water and beer :) We had a great drive to our hotel :) Thank you for a great first impression of Costa Rica.
Driver was on time , waiting outside the airport for us with a sign that had my name on it , very cool Guy let us stop for food on the way to our hotel
We were very pleased with our round trip from Liberia to Playa Portrero in late May 2023. Very friendly and timely. Stopped both ways for us to get souvenirs and shopping. Highly recommend.
This was an easy experience both arriving and returning to the airport. Quick to respond to message sent and easy to communicate with. Both drivers were very friendly. I would definitely use again!
The drivers for both vans were very friendly and patient as we were a group of ten passengers and lots of luggage. They were safe drivers and the vans were very clean and well maintained.
The driver was excellent since the address to our rental was incorrect. He took the time to help us find the correct location. Thank you
Shuttle van arrived before the time requested which was amazing. Once we loaded up and got in, the van didn’t start. After a couple times and a phone call, one of us got off the van and helped a hotel employee push the van twice to kick start the engine. Once the van started, our drive was smooth. No traffic on the way and we arrived at the airport a half hour before we needed to. Our driver was professional and kind the whole time. I’d definitely use them again.
The driver was courteous and personable. He was also on time and helpful . Can was clean. I highly recommend this service for all transport needs
The friendly service and knowledgeable staff. They arrived promptly, had great rest stop options and places to stop for snacks/drinks if needed. Great drivers
We used this service for all our transfers from hotels to hotels and to the airport. we were a large group of 24 people, all arriving & leaving at different times and staying at different hotels at times. We highly recommend them, they are so easy to work with. ALWAYS on time and Professional, all drivers were friendly and informative. Thank you!!
Our driver Jose was GREAT! Also - the reservation process was easy, communication was easy, and finding our driver was easy. Highly recommend.
SUCH an easy transfer experience. We used the transfer to go to and from the diria resort in Tamarindo from the Liberia airport. On our way there our driver was responsive to calls and texts, and we had a seamless ride. He even helped us carry a heavy suitcase up to our walk up rental! Our kids made mooing noises every time they saw a cow and he was so patient. He was so nice, I feel badly that I don’t remember his name! On our way back to the airport we had Jose driving us, and he was so pleasant. He loaded all of our bags for us, and was chatting with our kids while we were getting ready to leave. 10/10 recommend! Our kids are two and four.
For my first visit to Costa Rica back in 2016 I hired Manuel to provide transportation to and from the Liberia Airport and for daily transport. I just came back from my second visit to Costa Rica. This time our group of 12 stayed in Tamarindo and of course Manuel along with his drivers Jose and Santos provided transportation for our group. Excellent safe service at affordable rates. When traveling to the Guanacaste region you only have one choice to make when it comes to your transportation needs and that's Guanacaste Viajes and Tours with Manuel Duarte. Amigo you are a blessing from God. I look forward to seeing again very soon
We used this company for multiple transfers between our short trips during our visit to Costa Rica. Very organized, dependable, courteous drivers. Always on time and I never had to follow up. Their vans were always clean. Pricing also reasonable compared to other transfer companies. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was because one of the drivers was asking me for full payment and didn’t seem to know how he was getting paid. Minor issue but resulted in extra unnecessary and uncomfortable phone calls for a customer. Overall would recommend!
The drivers could speak some English and offered suggestions for local places to explore. Also, very respectful and safe driving.
Fabian was super friendly and knowledgeable about the area. He go us to our destination safe and sound!
