Gabby's Guide to... Costa Rica! 🇨🇷
Costa Rica is a beautiful country located between Nicaragua and Panama in Central America. There is so much to see and experience here, from lush rainforests to stunning beaches to diverse flora, fauna, and wildlife.
Spanish is the official language of the country, but don't let that scare you! Many people in Costa Rica speak English and those who don't will often go above and beyond to help you. Before you go, learn a few important words and phrases in Spanish anyway-- the effort is always appreciated.
Costa Rica is also a great spot for adventure travelers, with endless opportunities for white water rafting, canopy tours, scuba diving and snorkeling, surfing, zip-lining, and more.
Day 1: San José
🇨🇷 Welcome to Costa Rica!
After landing in San Jose, grab an airport taxi to your hotel. In San Jose, I recommend the Studio Hotel—it's an easy landing pad that offers breakfast, a rooftop, a swimming pool, and it's located within walking distance of a laundromat and grocery store!
