Overview

Make the most of your time with The Rough Guide to Costa Rica, the definitive companion to this peaceful destination.

The guide features practical tips for exploring the outdoors from trekking the lush cloudforest reserve at Monteverde to rafting down the rivers of Valle Central.

Explore the best of Costa Rica with the clearest maps of any guide.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
Well-researched and impeccably written, the Rough Guides are a great choice for anyone seeking to be an informed, prepared traveler. Due to the fantastic essays, the Rough Guides are as much fun for armchair travelers as they are for those actually on the road. Each edition comes with detailed maps, in-depth essays on the history and culture of each destination, a wide range of lodging options, and recommendations for off-the-beaten-path places to visit. The special attention paid to the writing is a boon for travelers, most of whom find themselves reading the guide cover to cover instead of just looking up their specific itineraries.

    Somewhat Disappointed

    Whenever I travel, I usually get the "Lonely Planet" series which I have found to be excellent when it comes to planning the trip and also regarding places where you can get authentic food. Unfortunately, I could not find a Costa Rica guide from "Lonely Planet" and instead I picked up the "Rough Guide" book. This is a very badly written guide, especially if you have been "spoiled" by previously using "Lonely Planet" guides. Sometimes I got feeling that the author of this "Rough Guide" had never been to some of the locations that he/she describes.
