Transfer from San Juan del Sur to the Peñas Blancas border

Peñas Blancas is the crossing into Costa Rica, and it is the part of any journey that varies most. A private car gets you there on your schedule; what happens inside the crossing is immigration’s call.

What we do and do not handle

We drive you to the crossing and drop you where you need to be, or collect you from it.
We do not process your paperwork and we cannot speed up the queue.
Border fees and immigration charges are yours to pay and are not part of our quote.
Leave more time than you think you need. This is the one leg nobody can promise a duration for.

Connecting onward

If you are continuing into Costa Rica, tell us and we will drop you where the onward transport actually leaves from.
Coming the other way, give us your expected crossing time and a phone number — we would rather your driver waited than missed you.

Tell us what you need

Message us in English or Spanish. We answer by hand, so you get a real person and a real price rather than an automated reply.
