Costa Rica

The diverse landscapes of Costa Rica allow for great outdoor activities like white water rafting and relaxing at the Tabacon Hot Springs. Explore the Arenal Volcano and view the fiery red glow from the summit. Drive to the Monte Verde Cloud Forest to see the exotic environment and pass through the city of La Fortuna.

Talking SJ to Tabacon to Jaco

We are visiting CR in about 2 weeks.
Can anyone offer reliable driving directions from San Jose to La Fortuna and Tabacon?
Then, from Tabacon to Jaco?
It's been about 8 years since we've made the trip.

Thanks for the help.

Chuck and Suzanne

Default Re: SJ to Tabacon to Jaco

We usually go through San Ramon - it's a great scenic ride. Head down the main highway from San Jose toward Puntarenas - a turnoff to San Ramon will be on your right about 35 to 45 minutes outside San Jose. When you get into San Ramon keep an eye peeled for signs to "La Fortuna". Follow the signs. Total drive time about 3 hours.

It's a bit complicated to get from Tabacon to Jaco. You must come back to San Ramon, head toward San Jose and exit at La Garita. Follow the signs to Atenas and then signs to Jaco. From La Garita it's about an hour drive to Jaco.

Hope this helps.
