SJ to Tabacon to Jaco

[chafraho]

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.

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.
