English Speaking TAXI DRIVERS in Costa Rica

For the Most updated version go to:


Here the start of my list of OFFICIAL RED TAXI DRIVERS that I have used. Most of these speak some amount of English and the one’s that don’t, MY experience has been they are at least pretty trustworthy/reliable. Right now the list is predominately geared towards the Escazu area BUT it’s expanding (with YOUR HELP!?!?!) so keep checking back with my Living Life In Costa Rica site.



Do you have a LEGAL RED TAXI DRIVER to add?? 
E- me at  Taxis@CostaRicaResourceGuide.com


ALL the info is subject to change. MOST drivers are available additional expanded hours by advanced appointment. If there is an area with their name, they STILL can go to other locations - this is just where they predominately "hang".
PLEASE be VERY SPECIFIC ON YOUR NEEDS!!  If you need them to be there at a SPECIFIC HOUR - BE DIRECT - TELL THEM (otherwise you may be stressin' if they're in the middle of another client and/or are in traffic.  If so, YOU ASK them to help you get another driver!). 
NEVER NEVER NEVER lease a voice message for a driver and expect them to call you back!!  I find that MANY people in Costa Rica don't know how to use/check their FREE voice mail!!!





@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@



ALWAYS MAKE SURE THEY TURN THE
"MARIA"/METER ON
!!!!!!!!!!!
(it SHOULD be at 585.0 [don't get me going on the .0 part as that confused MANY a person who gave 5,300/$10.60 vs. $1.06 and trust me, not many drivers will "enlighten" you)

I don't care what the rest of the world's statistics are as based on MY observations - a LARGE percent of people I know living in or visiting Costa Rica have Apple's / Macintosh's - yet finding someone to repair it or hardware or software at a reasonable and in a timely manner and finding things for your Mac can be QUITE challenging and EXPENSIVE!!
So I've started a list of resources!! If you know anyone/anything else to add - have them go to the link at the bottom of this page for the questionnaire.
