Relaxed trip into the mountains - We had a relaxing drive from Manuel Antonio into the mountains. Rebeca, our driver, was super nice. She told us a lot about the country and its people and pointed out many beautiful views during the trip.

Our Driver Joshua Went Above and Beyond - Our driver Joshua spoke both Spanish and English. He was prompt, friendly, enthusiastic, accommodating, and knowledgeable. The van was modern, comfortable, and spacious. We were amazed by how patient he was considering the driving conditions. Traffic often moved very slow, and there were very few passing zones. He was a safe driver that didn't do anything unsafe due to frustration. Upon arrival in Monteverde, it was discovered that the road to our hotel had been closed temporarily due to a Christmas parade. Without being asked, Joshua helped us walk our belongings about a half mile to our hotel. This included getting thru the crowd watching the parade and up a steep, long hill. And we don't travel light. Then he of course had to walk all the way back to the van. We were very happy with SAMA Transfers and our driver Joshua.
