Discover Costa Rica with Peace of Mind, Comfort, and Authentic Hospitality

CR Transfer and Tours

At CR Transfer, we believe that transportation is more than just getting from point A to point B—it is the foundation of an unforgettable travel experience. From the instant you clear airport customs to the moment you arrive at your tropical destination, our mission is to deliver seamless, safe, and stress-free private mobility throughout Costa Rica.

Whether you are visiting for a dream family vacation, an executive retreat, a wedding, or an eco-adventure across mountain and coastal trails, we provide first-class private transfers tailored completely around your schedule.

Who We Are

Born from a deep passion for Costa Rica’s natural beauty and high standards of hospitality, CR Transfer was founded to raise the bar for private travel in our country. We know that navigating unfamiliar mountain roads, rental car counters, or rigid public transit can take away from the joy of traveling.

That is why we built a dedicated transport service focused entirely on reliability, personal attention, and safety. With an extensive operational reach spanning both international gateways—Juan Santamaría (SJO) and Guanacaste Airport (LIR)—to iconic destinations like Arenal, Monteverde, Manuel Antonio, and the Gold Coast, we take pride in being your trusted travel partner on the road.

Our Core Values

1. Safety & Professionalism Without Compromise

Your safety is our highest priority. Our late-model vehicles are rigorously maintained, sanitized, fully commercially licensed, and backed by comprehensive passenger insurance. Our professional drivers are seasoned experts who know every curve, weather pattern, and route nuance across the country.

2. Authentic Local Hospitality

In Costa Rica, hospitality is a way of life. Our bilingual chauffeurs and travel coordinators do not just drive—they welcome you with genuine warmth, share local insights, recommend authentic stops, and ensure your journey is smooth and pleasant.

3. Punctuality & Absolute Reliability

Travel days have zero margin for error. With advanced flight tracking, proactive communication, and disciplined scheduling, we ensure your vehicle is waiting exactly when and where you need it—no waiting, no confusion.

4. Tailored Flexibility

No two itineraries are alike. We reject one-size-fits-all shared shuttles in favor of flexible, private solutions. Need to adjust pickup times, request specialized child safety seats, or make scenic roadside stops for fresh fruit and wildlife spotting? We adapt to your pace.

What Sets Us Apart

Modern, Climate-Controlled Fleet: passenger vans, and mini-coaches equipped with powerful A/C, onboard Wi-Fi, USB charging, and ample luggage space.
Proactive Flight Monitoring: We track your commercial or private flight in real time, automatically adjusting pickup schedules for early arrivals or delays.
Family-First Amenities: Complimentary, certified child car seats and booster seats properly installed upon request.
Direct Point-to-Point Routes: No multiple stops at unfamiliar hotels. Your transfer is exclusively private for you and your group.
24/7 Dedicated Support: Local assistance via WhatsApp, phone, or email to ensure immediate support before, during, and after your trip.

The “Pura Vida” Journey Starts Here

I setup a Trip with some work colleagues and he offered his advice, asked questions, and in general is an excellent conversationalist and willing to tell you all the best spots and give you advice on additional excursions. We will be using his services again and again! Thanks Luis!
