Bus from Jaco to Monteverde?

Question

I'm wondering if there is a direct bus from Jaco to Monteverde and if anyone has a link to the schedule and price??? Most economical way would be appreciate ;o)

Answer 1

There is no direct bus.  You have to take a bus from Jaco to Puntarenas and then on to Monteverde-- you have to leave Jaco relatively early in the morning and the trip takes most of the day.  It should cost around $5.  Both Grey lines and interbus operate hotel to hotel shuttles for about $35.

Answer 2

There are no direct public buses. But yes, tourist shuttle buses. There are around 25US$ per person, and they do go from Jaco to Monteverde. Check: Interbus or Fantasy Bus for these connections and reservations. For the publich buses, there are no published schedules, you should ask on site. But this trip migth take around 4-5 hours.

Answer 3

I took the public bus from Monteverde to Jaco (stopping in Puntarenas to connect to a different bus).  It's really cheap, equivilent to about $5 if I remember correctly, and took about 5 hours of travel time.  It's convenient and a good deal.
