Thinking about traveling again? As your itinerary comes together, it’s essential to choose the right means of transportation at your final destination.
The Costa Rican Association of Car Renters wants you to get the absolute most out of your trip to Costa Rica. Staying safe means keeping your social interactions to a minimum and your belongings with you. Read on to see why traveling to Costa Rica is not only possible, it will also be a positive experience during the “New Normal.”
#1 Health & Security
In accordance with the Costa Rican Ministries of Tourism and Health, all car rental companies are required to follow strict sanitation protocols for the cleaning of their vehicles and installations.
|
-
Only you and your immediate family or group are present in the vehicle.
-
Practice social distancing from the outside world safely and securely.
-
Luggage and personal belongings are handled only by you.
|
#2 FLEXIBILITY
Follow your own itinerary
|
-
Save precious time over the wait and hassle of public transportation options like in-country flights or shuttle busses.
|
#3 COMFORT
Nothing beats having your own music, snacks, A/C, and space to spread out and travel in ease
|
-
Stay entertained. Most rental agencies offer portable Internet Hotspots capable of connecting up to five devices in your vehicle or hotel room at a time.
-
Always have access to your luggage and not have weight or other restrictions.
|
#4 AFFORDABILITY
Believe the math
|
-
Even single travelers and couples will save money over the cost of individual flights or shuttle transfers. I.E., the price of a round trip shuttle transfer from San José to Manuel Antonio is a minimum of $100 per person. The same round trip in-country flight is at least $175 per person.
-
Once you reach your final destination, there’s the additional cost and risk of getting around by taxi, bus, or hotel shuttle service.

#5 JUST FOR THE THRILL OF IT
Most Important: Do whatever you want whenever you want!
|
-
Design your itinerary according to where and when you want to travel, change plans if the whim hits, leave and arrive whenever you wish, and most importantly, explore to your heart’s delight.
-
Many of Costa Rica’s most beautiful natural treasures are off the beaten track. In your own vehicle, you’re not limited to organized tours to the most frequented national destinations.
