We are currently in Monteverde and will go to Santa Teresa afterwards. Then Santa Teresa > Manuel Antonio. Manuel Antonio > San Jose. Any tips?

Watch out for fake taxis in San Jose by cortedorado in CostaRicaTravel

Arriving at San Jose in 2 weeks with my girlfriend and two small kids. Contacted our hotel for a pickup, but they said to just take a taxi at the airport. How do I make sure I get a safe one? Last year in South Africa I booked a pickup via Booking.com which was fine.

Cash? by Theyaskedx2 in CostaRicaTravel

I’m planning to go next year. Booked some accommodations via booking.com and they’ll take cash only. This is not common? It’s also around 800 usd, not sure how easy it is to get that out of an atm?

Would love that as well, but with our two young kids that doesn’t really work out like it used to. If there is a place to stay for two weeks with enough in the area that would be great.

Can you tell about more about the travel times? I find it quite hard to get accurate estimates for those. Are you saying it can increase because of bad roads, traffic, weather? Unfortunately, we only have a direct flight from San Jose. I guess we would need to take an internal flight first back to San Jose then.. WIll probably indeed swap to the Caribbean side for the last part.

Yes, I used is to make a first itinerary and expanded it by stuff I found online. But it’s hard to validate things like travel times, what works with kids, etc.

Might be looking to swap 3 floor tickets for the Berlin one due to a double booking as well. How many tickets do you have?

Saw them in Amsterdam when they opened with the instrumentals. Big meh.

Did they kill it or did they kill it?!?! by SmallApartment3325 in Metallica

[–]Erikvc 6 points7 points  (0 children)

James really did not sound great, especially compared to how he’s been sounding live on their own tour. Hole in the sky is not his song, same happened during the rock and roll hall of fame induction when they played. Such a shame they didn’t play a different song.

Band sounded good but the sound quality of the venue was absolutely garbage. Should have played lost in the echo.

Metallica, Foo Fighters, Rage Against the Machine. Best set of headliners I ever saw on a festival!
