From San José to the Península de Nicoya |
|
|
By bus: Bus to Puntarenas (Tell the taxi driver: A la estación de Buses a Puntarenas)
From there take a taxi to the Ferry to Paquera or walk to the Lancha. Once you get to Paquera, there will always be a bus going to Montezuma via Tambor/Cóbano.
Depending on the time, in Cóbano you get a connecting bus service to Santa Teresa/Mal País.
Besides, there is a direct bus which leaves twice a day from the big bus station ?Coca Cola? in the center of San José.
By plane:
Either with Sansa from Alajuela (right next to the international airport) or from Pavas with Nature Air to Tambor.
You may also drive a rented car to Puntarenas, join the queue of waiting vehicles and wait for the guy with the ?ficha?. The ?ficha? is a slip of paper which is handed out by the staff of the ferry to all cars that will fit on the ferry. Only with the ?Ficha? will you be able to buy your tickets. Be aware: sometimes there are people asking for money so that you can get on the ferry. Don't give money to anyone walking along the queue. The tickets are sold at the counter on the corner!
Or you take a minibus from San José directly to your destination on the peninsula. Many tour operators offer this service. I am sure your hotel in San José will be glad to help you organize such a trip (approx. $ 40).
