Getting Around

We are still waiting on confirmation to determine the possibility of offering a bus service. This might be added later.

Ride-to-Order (Uber, Lyft). The best and cheapest way to move to and from the Convention Center is by using ridesharing apps. From the Costa Rica Marriott Hotel Hacienda Belén, a ride could cost around $4-$10, and from the Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel $2.5-$5. Also if you are going to the city center, this would be the best way to get there. 

Red cabs are the official taxi services in the country, but they tend to be more expensive than ride-sharing apps. Please ask at your hotel or the Convention Center to call these services.

Walking. Walking is also an option if you stay at the Wyndham San Jose Herradura Hotel. A 20-minute walk would take you to and from the convention center. You must use a pedestrian bridge to cross the main road in front of the convention center. It is advisable to use this way of moving during the day. However, the area could be with low lights during the night. 

From the Marriott Hotel Hacienda Belén, walking is not advisable as it could take up to 1 hour to get to the convention center and the roads are pretty complex to be crossed safely. However, if you like to walk this is also an option during the day. The convention center’s only access is through a busy highway. Therefore, walking in and out could be complicated.
