5.00Excellent transfer service in Costa Rica between our hotels and to the airport! Our driver Adrian spoke excellent English and was incredibly friendly and informative throughout the journey. He shared lots of interesting information about the area, which made the transfer even more enjoyable. Professional, punctual and very safe drivers. Highly recommend!

5.00One of the best decisions I’ve ever made! My friends and I wanted to make the most of our trip in Costa Rica and that was made possible because of Charles and his company! We never had to worry about the logistics of traveling between cities which is so nice while on vacation. Our driver Guillermo was very accommodating and always on time! Very reasonable pricing for as much traveling as we did. Will absolutely book our transportation with them in the future!
Unforgettable, safe, clean, and priceless service

5.00We were fortunate enough to get a last-minute booking for private transfer around Costa Rica for the day with The Banqueano. Charles was immediately responsive, arrived in a spotless luxury vehicle, and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area in ways which helped us avoid unnecessary traffic and congested tourist traps. Worth every penny. We felt very fortunate to have him as our guide as we explored volcanoes, botanical areas, and authentic Costa Rican cuisine. We will absolutely be recommending to friends who travel in the area, and certainly look forward to reaching out to Charles for future trips.
Driver was superb & having opportunity to relax & enjoy the scenery in weather impacted road conditions was priceless.

5.00We requested a private shuttle from San Jose airport to Jaco Beach. Driver was on time, holding a sign with our names so easy to find. Top notch service from pick up to drop off. Constant communication with us before the pick ups. We ended up using an all day driver as well as taking us to our other locations during our visit to Costa Rica. Recommend to use for all your stay!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND - Airport to hotel transport

5.00We got a trip for San Jose airport to La Fortuna using your Baqueano Transport. The ride could not have been any better or more professional. Our driver Denis was amazing. He was knowledgable of the area, funny, and easy to get along with. The trip was about 2.5 hours of driving + a stop for lunch at a great place Denis recommended. During our lunch stop Denis taught us about Costa Rican customs and culture. Denis even spotted a sloth and stopped the car to show us!I recommend everyone uses Baqueano’s transport and tour services.
Best experience! Would highly recommend

5.00Charles and Dennis delivered top notch customer service! We would highly recommend. From contacting us when we arrived, waiting over an hour for us to get thru customs, to making us feel very welcome and comfortable arriving in Costa Rica. We stopped at a great place for dinner and to use the restroom. They went above and beyond by recommending local restaurants and offering advise on how to have a wonderful stay in Costa Rica. Highly recommend this company!
