Excellent driver – sat in the front seat and got to observe how he handled weird situations, was very pleased. Happy to have luggage storage available in the bus office in Monteverde for about US$1. The bus was awfully warm – no a/c.

Comfortable journey. Really worth the money. Didn’t feel too long at all. Three hours or so and then a stop where there was a toilet, cafeteria, shop and sunset view!

The bus took time to arrive at the bus station, but not too bad. The driver was a good driver, and the bus was clean.
