It was a fake ticket! There was no transfer, no one did know about me and my booking. In the end I had to buy another ticket and ended up paying a lot of money to get to my next stop and hostel. I recommend buying tickets directly at caribe shuttle.
Transfer was well organized

When I got to Caribe Shuttle in Bocas del toro they didn't have my name as booked. I had my ticket and proof of payment. I wasnt concerned and asked if the bus was full which it wasnt so I knew they wouldn't bump me off. The lovely lady at the counter said not to worry and made a call to Costa Rica. Apparently there had been no communication over my booking between the booking agent and Caribe Shuttle. They sorted it out in time We caught a 30 minute boat to Alimante anc then a mini bus to the border. Where our driver showed us where to get our passport stamped and then we walked across the bridge with our luggage to go through Costa Rica immigration and then loaded onto another mini bus for about an hour. They dropped us all off at our respective hotels. We left Bocas at 12.30pm and I got to my Puerto Viejo hotel around 3.30pm
