Costa Rica Bus Tickets and Services
If
you are planning to
travel Costa Rica by bus,
purchase your bus ticket
online in advance through
A Safe Passage. We will pick
you up at the airport, take you
to a local bus stop, and get you
safely on your bus.
If time allows, we will take you
by the bank and the
market or for a beer and
a boca before you get on the
road. You will find our pick up
and delivery service the
easy, safe, efficient way to
get from the airport to where
you’re going.

"Many first-time
visitors are reluctant
to use the public bus
system because they
don't speak Spanish, are
fearful of being robbed
or find it difficult to
get to bus stops etc.
These problems are all
addressed by A Safe
Passage."
The New Key to Costa
Rica
First time visitors and
returning travelers
enjoy our services.
With a ticket purchased
in advance, you can
avoid the Coca Cola
and catch your bus near
the airport and en
route. Your seat will be
reserved, and, by using
a local bus stop, it may
be possible to reach
your destination the
same day you arrive.

"It
was great getting off the plane and
on to the bus. By picking us up at
the airport and taking us to the
bank and the market then to the bus
you saved us a least a day in San
Jose and we gained another day to
surf. I will tell anyone I know
coming to Costa Rica to use your
service."
Steve S. - Saskatchewan Canada
Or, if you arrive
too
late to continue your
travels the same day, we
can arrange lodging in a
local Alajuela hotel
that is five minutes from
the airport and on
the way to many of the
country’s popular
destinations. With
your ticket purchased in
advance, we will take
you to your bus stop and
get you on the first bus
the next morning.

Our new airport pick up
is easy and stress free.
Don’t worry if your
plane is late. After
exiting the restricted
area, turn right and
walk down to
Malinche Restaurant,
and we will meet you
there.
The Malinche
Restaurant is a new,
ideal place to unwind
before you continue your
journey. It is a one
minute walk from the
chaos of aggressive
porters and unofficial
taxi drivers offering a
ride at a “better,
reduced” price.
In the air-conditioned
comfort of the
restaurant, you can:
have a cup of Costa
Rican coffee; fruit
juice; or a cold,
local beer;
enjoy a "fresh -
fast - healthy"
meal;
read, relax and use
the WIFI connection.
***Three Don’ts***
1)
Don’t exchange money at
the airport; you
will get much
less for your
money. When we
pick you up, we
will take you by
the bank for the
official
exchange rate.
2) Don’t
worry; we’ll
stop by the
market so you
can pick up
water, snacks
and whatever you
need for the
road. 3)
Don’t rush;
the local bus
stop is just
five minutes
away.

"Thank
you so much. You have made our travels so much
easier. I will be recommending 'A Safe Passage' to
anyone I meet traveling to Costa Rica."
"When
my flight arrived in San Jose I was not sure what to expect
at the Juan Santamaria Airport. As soon as I got through
security, John was there before I even stepped outside. He
was dressed in professional attire and had my name printed
out on a board with his company name. I felt relieved when
I saw John through the all the chaos outside of the airport.
I had several taxi drivers aggressively come up and ask if I
needed a taxi and try to carry my luggage. Once they saw
that I was with A Safe Passage they moved on to the next
person.
John got me to my destination
quickly and easily. A traveler can simply avoid all the stresses
of San Jose and Coca Cola Terminal by going through A Safe Passage. I highly recommend
A Safe Passage to anyone traveling to Costa Rica."
