Travel to Monteverde and Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserves, visa requirements
The cheapest way to get to Monteverde is by bus, but you may also choose to use the Taxi Boat Taxi option if you are comming from "La Fortuna" and Arenal Volcano area.
Or you may choose to get a rental car. The roads within Santa Elena are now paved, but only as far as the gas station. The road to the reserve is not paved. So renting a car is not such a bad idea, but make sure that is is 4WD.
There are also private transportation companies that offer private transfers in a private vehicle. If you are on a budget, there are shuttle services that charge around $29.00 per person from anywhere in the country. Be aware that these are not private, and sometiems utilize window vans that are packed like sardines.
