Questions about getting around

What is the closest airport to La Fortuna, Costa Rica?

Both international airports are at a similar distance from La Fortuna and the Arenal Volcano area. The most common is Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) in San José, about a 3-hour drive. However, if your itinerary includes destinations like Tamarindo or Rincón de la Vieja, Liberia Airport (LIR) may be a better option for your departure. Keep in mind that rental car drivers typically add 1–1.5 hrs to the drive. We recommend booking a private transfer from San José Airport to La Fortuna for a stress-free arrival.

Is it safe to drive in Costa Rica?

Costa Rica is generally a very safe country in terms of crime. However, the roads are narrow and curvy, crossing multiple mountain ranges with varying elevations and conditions. Driving requires experience and local knowledge. We always recommend private transportation for a safer, more comfortable experience — especially for first-time visitors.

Liberia International Airport (LIR) is the closest airport to Tamarindo, approximately a 1.5-hour drive.

What is the closest airport to Four Seasons Costa Rica?
