Tamarindo to Sámara

Sámara is where Ticos themselves go to unwind, and getting there from Tamarindo is refreshingly simple with a private driver: inland through Santa Cruz, Guanacaste’s folklore capital, then through Nicoya — home to one of Costa Rica’s oldest colonial churches — before the road drops back down to the Pacific. The trip runs around two hours, but nothing says it has to: pull over for a cold pipa (coconut water), snacks, or groceries whenever the mood strikes, because the car and the clock are both yours. At the end waits a gentle horseshoe bay sheltered by a reef and lined with palms — one of the peninsula’s safest swimming beaches, with an easygoing town to match. Flat rate per vehicle for 1–5 passengers; +$15 per additional passenger from the 6th (max. 9). Available 24/7 — enter your pickup time and flight number at checkout.
