An Excellent Option for European Travelers
We used Daytrip twice on our recent trip to Spain. In both cases the drivers were excellent: punctual d friendly (without being ontrusive). Cars were immaculate. The sightseeing stops were worthwhile and the logistics were easy. Daytriplives up to its own hype and would not hesitate to use again.

On time, comfortable clean vehicle, responsible driving and arrived early at the airport despite much traffic congestion
Luis was on time with a clean and comfortable auto. He drove responsibly and explained the congestion according to his GPS. He delivered me on time at the airport.

Great service
I travelled between Budapest and Prague. The service was on- time and the car was comfortable. The driver was courteous and responsive. He entered into a conversation when I initiated it, and let me mind my business when I wanted some quiet time. The door-to-door service saved me a lot of time and hassle not just getting from one city to the other, but also to to get to my destination within the cities. Since I had the same driver both ways he was able to pick me up an hour earlier when my schedule changed on the way back. I highly recommend the service.

The Daytrip driver advantage
Local knowledge about the route from San Jose to Puerto Viejo
Including available sightsEnglish speaking
All our drivers speak English as well as their native language (and sometimes additional languages too!). They're happy to discuss local history and culture with you, and answer any questions you may have. And because they speak the local language, they're able to provide you with a unique opportunity to connect with natives.
Safety first!
We screen all our drivers for criminal and traffic records, and personally interview each one. We also inspect their cars for safety, comfort, and reliability. All cars must be less than ten years old, in excellent operating condition, and insured as required by local law. And because our drivers are locals, they're familiar with the rules and customs of the road.
