TAXI BOAT FAQ’s:
I am concerned about safety, do you offer life jackets for all of your passengers?
Actually our boats are the only ones in the area full equipped with life jackets, operation permits and insurances.
Is the boat really \"rocky\"?
All depends on the ocean if the weather conditions are not good, we have to cancel the ocean operation and we help our clients to make the trip by land if necessary.
Would you recommend that passengers take medicine for motion sickness?
Is a speed boat you hardly get sea sick, the movement is back and forward not side by side.
Where do you put the luggage?
The luggage is covered with plastic bags and travel along the passengers.
Can I go and come from the same location the same day?
Only 1 daily departure available from each location for the regular taxi boat, however is you arranged a private boat just for your party you would be able to come back the same day. Other option is spending the night over then come back the following day.
I have a car rental can I leave it the Taxi Boat departure sport then pick up the following day when I return?
We always recommend to leave your car at your car rental office in Jaco, all car rentals in Costa Rica have a office in Jaco. This would be a safe place to leave your rental vehicle.

Web Reviews about the Taxi Boat:
Taxi Boat to and from Jaco
The private speed boat, taxi boat or water taxi to Montezuma or Jaco is one of the best way of transportation in this area of Costa Rica. Saving up to 7 hours of hot and uncomfortable trip by land, the taxi boat most accurate way to get to Montezuma or Jaco.
Taxi Boat Jaco Montezuma
We ended up staying two nights here and then leaving via private taxi boat across the awesome Nicoya Gulf, ($30USD ea), for a 1 hour transfer to the to town of Jaco (which would have taken us at least 8 hours of busing / ferries to get to otherwise.
Taxi Boat
So in a few minutes we're off to taxi a “Taxi Boat” up the coast to Montezuma, which is on the peninsula on the north pacific side of Costa Rica. I've wanted to go to this area for a while now! See the image on how we'll cut across the ocean to get there. The boat is an hour instead of the many (treacherous) hours driving up the coast, and probably more scenic :)
