Can anyone recommend a good, reliable private driver in Costa Rica?


My girlfriend and I are going to be needing transportation around the Nicoyo peninsula. Can anyone recommend a good, reliable private driver in Costa Rica? We are looking for a English speaking, very friendly driver with a nice 4×4 with AC. 4×4 will defiantly be needed for the Nicoya Peninsula. We will be going from Brasilito to Playa San Miguel/Playa Coyote.

A few days later, we will be going from Playa Coyote to Montezuma.

Thanks!

It would be better to give you a culture lesson to answer this question. If you asked a group of Ticos, who is a good, reliable private driver in Costa Rica, every single person in the group would raise their hand….. good luck.. Try Jose, ask around for Jose…he is a good driver….

    Hi Michael,

    We several good drivers, but we use vans. I know there are a few reliable 4×4 drivers around. Try the Tico Times classifieds and as for references: ticotimes.net.

    Send me your travel dates just in case I can recommend someone. It will probably cost upwards $100/day plus meals and lodging expenses.

    Good luck,

    Check out http://www.ticotimes.com. That is your best bet for finding a good private driver. I have a guy in San Jose who is a taxi driver that I use, but he only does local stuff, nothing out furthur. So try the Tico Times.

    Have fun!!!!!

    This is probably the man you are looking for.

    I plan on using him again when I go to Costa Rica in June.

    You can e-mail him at:

    Earl@dukeofearls.com

    Tell him that Paul B from Indian Rocks Beach, Florida – the "Ivory Ring Maker" sent you his e-mail address.

    Totally Honest, dependable, inexpensive, fantastic personality, and a Gentleman to Boot!

    Buena Suerte

    y Viva La Pura Vida!
