Find your Draiber

how it works

  • [Our Draiber] brought us from San José to La Fortuna and found some wonderful stops along the way that our whole family enjoyed. From coffee plantations to waterfalls and even a waterfall with a water slide that our teenage kids absolutely loved (and a local soda for lunch). He found some great highlights for us! Best of all was having his company- one of the nicest people you’ll meet. Highly recommend!

  • Very reliable, courteous, trustworthy always there when you need him. Brings you to all the touristy spots and non touristy spots. Takes you to the good local restaurants. We highly recommend [our Draiber] and best of all it’s cheaper than renting a car and won’t get lost.

  • [Our Draiber] has been our driver since the first time we visited Costa Rica. Ahora es un gran amigo. Every time we travel back to Samara we call him to pick us up from the airport and drive us back. We are in Costa Rica 2-5 times a year and look forward to seeing him when we visit. He is reliable, prompt, and his communication is impeccable. Of course, waiting for a driver to show up in Sámara for the long drive to the airport to catch a flight you don't want to miss can be stressful. Draiber is always on point. Pura Vida Amigos!

  • Before I even arrived in Costa Rica, I connected with Draiber. We exchanged lots of messages and I knew that once I arrived I'd be in great hands. I had over a four hour ride from the San Jose Airport to my final destination and the price was extremely reasonable. [My Draiber] picked me up and the car was really comfortable. He even had mobile WiFi so I could connect with my contacts in Costa Rica. They also arranged a pick-up for me at the end of my trip in the town I was staying back to the airport. [My Draiber] drove this leg and he was also fantastic. I will be recommending Draiber for trips near or far to every one of my friends or family that visits Costa Rica in the future. Thanks to this amazing team the start and end of my trip was every bit as good as what was in between.

  • I would definitely recommend them. [Our Draiber] was so excellent. He was patient, knowledgeable and made many stops on the way from Playa Penca, Guanacaste to SJO. The food he recommended was yummy delicious and we even did a coffee tour. I was very skeptical of using this service, but it was without a doubt the best way to end our trip. Gracias Draiber por tu paciencia. Esperamos verte otra vez en CR! Pura Vida!

Why go through Draiber instead of hiring a local driver directly?

Most independent drivers don’t have the legal permits required to transport travelers, nor are they established companies and thus can’t offer you the legal backup to keep you protected.

Costa Rica is a country of nature and adventure that in order to actually enjoy it, you need to know you can actually let go of the wheel and hand it over to a trustworthy business that is reliable, punctual and, above all…safe (and legal, of course)!
