Nauyaca Waterfalls with Cuchi Transfer and Tours What an amazing experience. Can't wait to do it again! This was by no means super easy but it was very well worth it. There are two different companies you can go through to get to the waterfall but I highly recommend the one our driver recommended if you prefer a less crowded experience. Our driver Luis with Cuchi Transfer & Tours went above and beyond. He hiked down to the waterfall with us, watched our stuff and took a ton of pictures. I can't recommend him enough. We started off at the top set of the waterfalls where we had the place to ourselves and then moved down to the bottom section where we spent the majority of time.

Safe, reliable transportation and sightseeing with Luis of Cuchi Transport and Tours My wife and I, along with another couple, made our first visit to Costa Rica, and relied on Cuchi Transportation and Tours for our ride from the airport to Playa Hermosa, day trips, and the long ride back to San José . Our driver, Luis Guillen, was always on time, safe, and full of useful information . His first language is Spanish but his English is very good. Luis also arranged a fishing trip for us on The Goliath. We caught a lot of fish — Mahi-mahi, yellowfin tuna, red snapper, and assorted other fish. This is in July, which is supposed to be the off season. Although July is the rainy season, we found the weather to be pleasant and cooler than in Florida. The prices here are reasonable, the people are friendly, the country is stunningly beautiful, the food is delicious and varied, and the culture is laid back and interesting. I look forward to returning to Costa Rica and having Luis show us more of it.

Great service at a good price. It was challenging to find a reasonably priced service to take us from SJO to Los Suenos on the coast. Luis and his team did a great job of not just transporting us but also giving us interesting information along the way. He was also very flexible to meet our specific needs for pickup and dropoff. I highly recommend Cuchi.

trustworthy Luis is immediate to respond to questions on WhatsApp, he is very concise, kind and fun to talk to. he not only arranged our airport transfer , he also helped us with an ATV tour and arranged our transport to the ATV tour using ANOTHER transport company. which in essence means, he has a lot of friends and a lot of connections. do not hesitate to use this company. We were transported from the San Jose airport to Dominical Beach in a torrential rainfall for 4 hours and he was very cautious and not once did I worry about the skill of him driving. He is an exceptional man!

Excellent! Luis est venu nous chercher à l'aéroport le 16 décembre 2021 et est venu nous reconduire de Jaco à l'aéroport de San José le 14 mars 2022. Luis conduit prudemment. Il est toujours de bonne humeur. Il est le meilleur conducteur pour le transport de l'aéroport mais aussi pour des excursions.

Worry Free transportation and Excursions to Jaco We used Cuchi Transfers and Tours numerus times in our week stay in Jaco, We used them for Airport transportation, tours and for local transportation. They were always on time, professional and reasonably priced. We used them for a all day Arenal Excursion that was amazing. Our driver Luis did a great job, between driving, being our tour guide and answering all of our questions. We were a group of 8 people, they made getting around in Jaco so easy.

Very reasonable and reliable transfer to and from airport to Jaco. Luis was very tentative and answered all my questions regarding our airport transfers to and from Jaco from the airport. He was on time to pick us up, assisted us with our luggage, was a very responsible driver and stopped along the way to pick up some fruit from the fruit stand. I would definitely use Cuchi Transfers again if I ever returned to Jaco.

A worry-free, fun-filled experience! Luis took excellent care of my wife and me. He was extremely patient and friendly and always happy to take us wherever we wanted to go. This was our second trip to Costa Rica in two years and we used Cuchi both times. He was very flexible and stopped whenever we wanted to use the restroom or explore a new gift shop we saw along the road. He knows Costa Rica like the back of his hand which saved us time, money and frustration. His stories and recommendations made our visit even more enjoyable. His vans look and feel like brand new and are roomy and comfortable for long excursions. The rates he charges are reasonable, especially for the VIP service he gives you. He was introduced to us by my brother who lives in Costa Rica and has been using Cuchi for years with no complaints. Say Hola Luis! when you see him from his new friends, Mark and Erin.

Cuchi Transfers and Tours Jorge and Louis were extremely accommodating and helpful. From picking us up at SJO and getting us to Jaco plus several fun tours during our stay and getting us back to the airport very early in the morning - they were great. Be sure to ask about a stop to visit a tribe of monkeys on the way to the hot springs.
