Easy and great van for a large group. However, please know that when using a Visa credit card it does not cover the insurance for a van that has more than 9 passengers. Adobe has vans for 11 people so you need to buy the next step of insurance. I checked registration and it is an 11 person vehicle.

We had a family of 8 in a large van rental. We went to Quepos to visit Manuel Antonio Park and the La Fortuna. We saw sloths, spider monkeys, capuchins, bats, poison dart frogs, toucans, macaws, agouti, leaf cutter ants, woodpeckers, crabs, hummingbirds, and more. We went ziplining at Arenal volcano, hiked to the waterfall in La Fortuna, catamaran in Quepos, the beach in Manuel Antonio, hot springs at Baldi in La Fortuna, Cloud Forest, and more.
