Layer up for altitude change
Monteverde’s high elevation is significantly cooler than Liberia—bring a warm layer for the start and lighter clothing for arrival.
Confirm exact pickup/drop names
Provide precise hotel, airport terminal, or landmark addresses so drivers can locate you quickly; include flight numbers for airport pickups.
Expect winding mountain roads
The approach out of Monteverde includes narrow, twisty sections and occasional unpaved stretches—driver comfort and seatbelt use are important.
Charge devices and use onboard Wi‑Fi sparingly
Wi‑Fi is available for sharing photos or checking flight status, but bring a charged phone and offline maps in case of limited signal.
Warm midlayer (fleece or light jacket)
Monteverde’s elevation brings cool, damp air—an easily stowed midlayer keeps you comfortable at the start.
Sun hat and sunscreen
Liberia and Guanacaste are much sunnier and drier; protect skin during stops or after arrival.
Small dry bag or daypack
Keep valuables or a camera handy; useful if you take advantage of the free wait hour for a walk or meal.
Motion‑sickness remedy
If you’re sensitive to winding roads, a preventive tablet or wristband makes the descent more comfortable.
