Montezuma help
 
We have a driver taking us from San Jose to Montezuma, where we'll be for 7 days. I now realize we probably need a vehicle to do some exploring, or else we'll be stuck in Montezuma. No rental car agencies nearby. Tricolor said they'd drop a vehicle off for $200. Any suggestions? Wish we would have thought about this ... the adventures of travel before you even leave!

There is a car rental agency in Tambor (do a web search) that will probably deliver a vehicle to Montezuma for a lot less

Can you tell me the name of your driver? We are travelling to Montezuma next February (staying at the Ylang Ylang resort) and do not want to make the drive ourselves(been there, done that in CR already!) How long does it take, and what is the cost?

Isn't there also a car rental now in Santa Theresa/MalPais?

I thought there was, too, but I haven't been able to find their name. Can anyone help? It's not mapache. Budget or Avis does not have Montezuma or those 2 towns listed on their website. It's not Tricolor. I already called them & they said $100 each way to deliver to Montezuma. I didn't ask where they were coming from.

This Budget site as well as two maps, show that Budget has offices in MalPais and Tambor. Maybe this will help
