Wegbeschreibung

Coming to the Toucan? We are in central Uvita. Take the paved road directly across the highway from the restaurant Soda Naranjito (heading east) &amp, go 100 meters. The Tucan Hotel will be on your right. We are across from the restaurant Soda Salem. See the directions below:


From San José -
From San José take the Interamerican Highway south to San Isidro de El General, then the road southwest to Dominical, then the coast road south to Uvita.

By Bus - Take the Musoc bus to San Isidro. The Musoc terminal is at Ave 20 y Calle Central. There is a bus every hour from 5:30 AM til 5:30 PM. It takes about 3 hrs and the cost is about $3. (You can take a Tracopa bus from the Coca Cola but there is a greater chance of getting robbed or losing your luggage.) If you leave after 12:30 you will not be able to connect with the Uvita bus and will have to stay the night in San Isidro or take a taxi (about $25). In San Isidro walk 3 blocks south to the Uvita bus terminal. Ask anyone for directions. The bus to Uvita leaves at 9 AM and 4 PM. The cost is 665 colones or about $1.50 and it takes 2 hours. Uvita is not quite an hour after Dominical and you get off the bus just after the Gas Station.


From Quepos (Manuel Antonio) -
From Quepos or Manuel Antonio, just take the coast road south past Dominical and into Uvita. The road is unpaved and in bad condition - expect an adventure.

The Uvita bus leaves Dominical at 10 AM and 5 PM takes about 1 hr and costs about $0.75. You can also take the Uvita bus from Quepos. Check at the terminal for times. There are 2 buses - one at about 10:30 AM and the other at about 6:30 PM. It takes about 3 hrs and costs about $1.50.


From Panama -
Take the Interamerican Highway north to San Isidro de El General, then the road southwest to Dominical, then the coast road south to Uvita.

By Bus - From the border take a Tracopa bus to Palmar Norte or take a border (Frontera) bus to Ciudad Neily and then change to a bus to Palmar Norte. From Palmar Norte take a bus to Cortes. Depending on the bus you took you might have to walk a couple of blocks to the center of Palmar Norte to get the bus to Cortes. From Cortes take the bus to Uvita. Check with the bus drivers for times. There are only 2 or 3 buses a day from Cortes.
