About the ride: The trip from Jaco to San José Airport usually takes 1.5 hours, but travel time can be longer during peak traffic hours in the Central Valley. For this reason, it’s recommended to leave Jaco with plenty of time before your flight, especially in the mornings and late afternoons when traffic in and around San José is at its heaviest. Along the way, you’ll pass small coastal towns, rolling hills, and the well-known Río Grande de Tárcoles, before heading into the busy metropolitan area.
Planning your transfer ahead ensures a smooth, stress-free journey and a timely arrival at the airport after.
