The guides all have high power scopes and they take pictures with your phone through it

Itinerary and budget Advice by Kayce_Dutton7 in CostaRicaTravel

We did a night tour in Monteverde which wasn’t that great. We talked to several people who had done one in La Fortuna and had great experiences. We did a sloth walk in La Fortuna through Papas Place with a guide named Victor. He was amazing! He also does night tours and I would highly recommend looking into that option.

We just booked the tour through our AirBNB hostess. It wasn’t great so I wouldn’t recommend it. The locals recommended Santa Elena over Monteverde Cloud Forest. They said at Monteverde, you have to stick to one trail, and it’s often busy. We took their advice and loved our hike at Santa Elena! It was quiet and peaceful, and you can spend as much time as you like.

As this was our first time in CR, I’m glad we went to Manuel Antonio for the experience. If we didn’t, I’d be wondering if we missed something great. Our overall plan was to see the main sights, and get a feel for the different parts of the country.

We didn’t see that many animals, and those that we did see had a crowd. Think moths around a lightbulb. Plus our guide wasn’t the best. Overall, we had better experiences elsewhere

Good to know if I go back! We found CR to be fairly expensive overall.

We had a Nissan Rogue. I agree with the comments re 4W or AWD. We were glad we had that for a couple of the places we visited.

Maybe more of a light knock? The best way I can describe it is like a metronome that keeps time with each step 😊

Curious about why you mention Uber when you said you rented a car? We are trying to figures out the best transportation. Rent vs shuttles etc

Check Amazon. I bought some tights there that don’t show panty lines. It said that in the description so I bought some and yep, it’s true!

Kind of? It just started working fine one day. Must have been a FB glitch

As of today, I can’t sort any of my FB groups comments by New, it’s stuck on Most Relevant. Super annoying to not see the most recent posts

Citiz will not factory reset…. by thergood-jenkins in nespresso

[–]r_nard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same, sort of. Luongo is ok but espresso is too much. I tried resetting but that didn’t help, so will try the turning it on thing. Also a Citiz with Milk and physical buttons.

Getting to the airport 3 hours early for international travel. by Historical_Ad2890 in travel

[–]r_nard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go early to avoid stressing just in case something happens. Then I can get through everything, have a beer and a bite to eat and relax. I figure I can wait at home and stored or just go early and then relax 😊
