We had 5-6 other guides for our trip to Costa Rica last year, but this ended up being the only one we used. It was so comprehensive! We started our trip off with a large group of family, and it definitely made me feel like the expert of the group. We discovered so many things that we'd have otherwise missed! For the second half of the trip, my boyfriend and I rented a car and went off on our own. We used the book as a road trip guide and it was spot on in every place we visited. I *loved* how it was laid out by town -- we knew what was coming next, what the points of interest were, along with any interesting tidbits we needed. I'm writing this review so late because we're heading to Colombia next month and had hoped that James had written a guide for there as well. Unfortunately there isn't one (yet, anyway!) and the other guide books I've found have me missing this one even more. If you're going to Costa Rica, *definitely* pick up this book. You won't be sorry.We're going to Colombia in a couple of months and were very bummed that you didn't have a guide for there. Keep doing what you're doing -- can't wait to see what you come out with next! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for planning a trip to Costa Rica *by B***R on September 30, 2016* This was the first travel guide I read cover to cover before a trip and I’m grateful I did. The attention to detail, photographs, and organization with this guide was perfect in helping me identify locations that most interested me, hidden gems, and ideal times of year to visit different regions in Costa Rica. I’d recommend using this travel guide to grasp all that Costa Rica has to offer and plan your hostel/eco-lodge/resort stays based on regions that most appeal to you. The educational depth of this book around culture, politics and history far exceeded my expectations. Not only did it leave me more prepared, it left me more excited for my trip.Looking forward to more adventures in Costa Rica! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Info, TERRIBLE binding - ADDED UPDATE *by D***L on February 20, 2018* I am in the planning stages and have found this book to be very insightful and organized. I like the slick pages, photographs, and detail. HOWEVER, no fault of the author, but the book has already fallen apart. I haven't even moved it off the table yet, but just turning pages seems to be too much for it. The binding is terrible. Looks like I'll have to take it fully apart, punch holes, and put it in some kind of notebook to take on my trip. Disappointed in that.Back from trip to CR. On further review, I have to say some of the info in this book is misleading. The book makes it feel like you would have a hard time driving in CR. NOT TRUE. The roads are not that bad and the drivers are more courteous than anywhere I have driven in the US. Next trip, I will save $300 in driver fees and see the country! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/12362048-costa-rica-the-complete-guide-eco-adventures-in-paradise-paperback](https://www.desertcart.us/products/12362048-costa-rica-the-complete-guide-eco-adventures-in-paradise-paperback) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
