San Jose is the gateway to Costa Rica and must stop on any Costa Rica itinerary.
San Jose doesn’t get the love it deserves from most travellers, who make a beeline for Costa Rica’s rainforests and beaches. This 4-day stopover lets you see what they’re missing, with a half day city tour included, plus time at leisure to enjoy the local pace of life.
Spend three nights in San Jose, capital of Costa Rica, with a half-day cultural tour showing you some of the country’s less talked about assets. Visit the National Theatre, the National Museum, and the city’s most historic neighbourhoods. You’ll also take a trip out to Moravia, famous for its local crafts, and an ideal place to pick up a unique souvenir.
