30 min · Every 10-15 minutes · 5:00am - 10:00pm

💡 Flag the bus from the highway median—drivers stop anywhere. Pay with coins only (CRC 265). Get off at 'La Sabana' for Parque Metropolitano, or stay on until downtown.

🚌
Airport Bus (Tuasa/San José-Pavas) $1

Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) bus stop outside arrivals → San José city centre (terminal at Calle 12 & Avenida 2)

40 min · Every 20-30 minutes · 6:00am - 9:00pm

💡 Cheapest airport transfer but requires a second bus from San José to Curridabat. Take the Tuasa bus to San José, then catch a Curridabat bus from Avenida 8. Total cost under $2, but expect 90 minutes.

🚕
Airport Taxi (Orange Taxi) $30

Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) → Hyatt Place San Jose Pinares

25 min · On demand · 24/7

💡 Use the official orange taxis from the airport queue—they're regulated and have fixed rates to Curridabat. Ignore drivers offering rides inside the terminal.

🚕
Uber $5

Hyatt Place San Jose Pinares → Multiplaza Mall (Escazú)

Top Attractions in Curridabat

Feria de Agricultores (Farmers' Market) Free

💡 Bring small bills and your own bag. Arrive by 07:00 for the best selection; by 10:00 cheap ends. Try the 'pipa' (green coconut water) from the sellers on the north side.

Paseo de los Artesanos Free

💡 Haggling is not expected; prices are fair. If you want a custom piece, ask the artist directly—most speak basic English. Best visited late afternoon when light hits the murals.

Museo de la Comunidad Judía Free

💡 Call ahead (+506 2272 1234) to confirm opening times; they close for holidays without notice. Don't skip the courtyard garden—great spot for a quiet rest.

Parque Central de Curridabat Free

💡 Bring your own water; nearby cafes charge tourist prices for drinks. Visit on a weekday morning for a quiet atmosphere before school lets out.

Mirador del Cerro de la Muerte viewpoint Free

💡 Go early (before 08:00) to beat the haze and catch the sun rising past the Irazú volcano. Wear decent shoes—the gravel path gets slippery after rain.
