How to Prepare for
for your trip to Costa Rica

Planning Your Trip

Costa Rica is attracting more and more travelers seeking outdoor adventures. This small Central American country, located between Nicaragua and Panama, offers a remarkable concentration of diverse ecosystems within a relatively small area.
The locals, known as Ticos, embrace a laid-back lifestyle summed up by the expression “Pura Vida.” This philosophy is evident in their interactions and contributes to the country’s welcoming atmosphere.
Planning a trip to Costa Rica requires specific preparation. The tropical climate with its dry and wet seasons, the diversity of the regions, entry requirements, and health considerations are all factors to take into account to fully enjoy your stay.
