Getting around
 

fiogf49gjkf0d
Costa Rica's public bus system is excellent, cheap and quite frequent, even in remote areas. Getting anywhere by bus with a lot of baggage can be a problem, however - many people travel light, leaving the bulk of their baggage somewhere secure (a San Jose hotel, for example) while on the road. Taxis regularly do long- as well as short-distance trips and are a fairly inexpensive alternative to the bus, at least if you're travelling in a group. Car rental is more common here than in the rest of Central America, but is very expensive.
