If you are planning your first visit to Costa Rica, this audiobook will be invaluable. It is filled with insider tips to give you a head start on your Costa Rica vacation so you will "know before you go". The information and explanations will save you time and confusion during your trip. You'll also learn Costa Rica Spanish words along the way.

Learn about the history and culture of Costa Rica, when to go, what to pack, where to go, and where to find things you may need. You'll know what to expect when you arrive in Costa Rica, with a complete walk-through of the airport. We've also included information to keep you safe during your vacation and the ins-and-outs of travel in the country like renting a car, taking the bus or taxi, and hiring a private driver.

Learn the differences between restaurants and sodas, grocery stores, pulperias, and ferias (farmers markets), pharmacies, and macrobioticas (health food stores). We'll also tell you how to shop, where to find the best prices on souvenirs, and how to avoid "gringo pricing".

Listen to this "handy guide" on the plane so that you'll be prepared before you explore this amazing country.

Scorpions and snakes

I liked the restaurant advice and gringo pricing. Enjoyed learning new Spanish words too. Pura Vida

listen to before your first visit to Costa Rica

I've been to Costa Rica twice a total of four and a half weeks out together and I learned whole lot from this 60 Minute audio! I will listen to it again before my third time there just to not miss anything. So good!

A wealth of knowledge, from experience

I am so glad that I listened to this book before my first trip to Costa Rica. The author shared practical, useful information about the country, their customs and practices. The books gives you everyday information that can be applied to make your trip safe, relaxed and comfortable. Very informative. I took lot's of notes but will most likely buy the book for reference before we go.

Informative with pleasant narrative.

We are so excited about our visit to Costa Rica, and this book has helped beautifully to prepare us. It was a pleasure to listen to on Audible. We plan to listen more than once before our trip.
