This is about a 3 hours 15 drive on average from the Liberia airport, so first adjust it by 10 minutes up or down depending on where your car dealer is (ADD 10 minutes for ones like Adobe or Vamos, my favorite 2 rental companies), but then ALSO add an hour or two for your visit to Catarata llanos del Cortés falls.

Under normal driving patterns, you will save about 4 minutes if you go back to the Liberia airport and then follow the
