Flight
The Liberia Guanacaste Airport (LIR) is the best option to get to Tamarindo. The car/shuttle ride is about an hour and a half (give or take with traffic) from the airport to downtown Tamarindo. Please refer to their website or your hotel for transportation accommodations.
Travel Note
Reach out to your hotel or airbnb host to inquire about shuttle services to and from the airport. If we have large groups arriving at the same time we will work to reserve a shuttle from the airport to town. No ubers from airport. Taxis are available and accept US Dollars. Ubers are readily available within the city of Tamarindo and prices are typically less than $10 when we visited in January 2025. Daily golf carts are available to rent. Everything is fairly close by and walking is a great way to explore the city.
