Liberia Airport → Nosara: common questions
How long is the drive from Liberia Airport (LIR) to Nosara?
About 2h 30m — roughly 120 km. Allow extra during peak holiday traffic; your driver tracks your flight, so a delay doesn't cost you the ride.
How much is a transfer from Liberia Airport to Nosara?
$225 USD one-way for the vehicle, not per person — private and door-to-door, for up to 4 passengers. That is the exact amount you pay online when you book, so there is nothing to settle with the driver.
Is this a private shuttle with my own driver, or a shared one?
Private — your own private driver and vehicle, just for your group. Nobody else joins the ride: the van leaves when you land and goes straight to your door in Nosara, with no stops at other hotels. The $225 fare covers the whole vehicle for up to 4 passengers — about $56 each with 4 of you — so a family or group often pays about what separate shuttle seats would cost, without the extra stops.
Why book this Nosara transfer with Pick Me Up?
It takes about 60 seconds online: you pick the date, pay the $225 fare by card and your QR ticket arrives right away, with no waiting for a reply to confirm. A certified local driver takes your trip ahead of time, tracks your flight, and on pickup day is already waiting at Liberia Airport arrivals with a sign with your name — then straight to your door in Nosara. Full refund up to 24 hours before pickup.
Are the drivers on this route certified and insured?
Yes. We only work with certified tourist-transport providers holding the required ICT and CTP permits, so every Nosara ride is legal and insured.
Can you handle groups and luggage to Nosara?
Absolutely — private air-conditioned vans for families and groups, with room for surfboards and luggage. Tell us your group size and we match the right vehicle.
