Synopsis
Spend less, see more. This is the philosophy behind Pauline Frommer's guides. Written by travel expert Pauline Frommer (who is also the daughter of Arthur Frommer), and her team of hand-picked writers, these guides show how to truly experience a culture, meet locals, and save money along the way., "Full of good tips andsuggestions." - Chicago Tribune "Packed with information onhow to eat and sleep withoutdepleting your bank account." - Louisville Courier Spend Less and See More in Costa Rica Are you ready to travel smart? If you'd like to get the most out of your dollar and your trip, this is the guide for you. I put a fresh spin on budget travel, showing you how to see the best for less and how to see it in a more authentic way-the way locals do. Instead of spending $300 a night for a chain hotel, why not rent a brand-new, three-bedroom house near the beach in Jaco for just $130 a night, or bed down in a rustic but cozy B&B in Tortuguero for just $30 a night? I'll take you on self-guided treks up dormant volcanoes and through rain forests so that you can save enough to splurge on the best ziplines in Costa Rica (we rate 'em all), conquer the rapids on a whitewater rafting tour, or learn how to surf from a master. Let me show you the "other" Costa Rica-the one only insiders know about. Tour a local artist's studio in San Jose or volunteer with the ANAI in Puerto Viejo to monitor the hatching process of sea turtles. These are only a few of the great ways to get closer to the culture of Costa Rica. Read on for more!
