San José Airport (SJO) to Puerto Viejo private transfer

Puerto Viejo de Talamanca is about four hours from San José by road, on Route 32 through Braulio Carrillo and then Route 36 down the coast. The southern Caribbean has a distinct Afro-Caribbean culture, language and cuisine, and neighbouring Cahuita National Park protects the only significant living coral reef in the country. The Caribbean also runs on an inverted calendar: February, March, September and October are its driest, clearest months, which is worth knowing if you are timing this leg against the Pacific side of the trip. The fare covers the whole vehicle, so a group pays once.
