enjoyed our trip, went to Atenas, Manual antonio, Punarenus and La fortuna. Went to some nice restaurants in Manual Antonio. Nice day sailing to Tortuga, nice beach, although it seems all about removing cash from you the moment you set foot on the beach. Saw most of the wildlife that we hoped to see

ensure you return the car before the specified time. 4x4 car is best for Costa Rica terrain as roads are not good with lots of surface damage and holes.
