Hey guys! Just wondering your thoughts as to whether or not a 4×4 is recommended /required for our trip. We are planning 17 days in CR with the following itinerary : San Jose – Arenal – Santa Teresa/ Mal Pais – Manuel Antonio – Drake Bay(time permitting) – back to SJ. We would like to rent a car the whole time mostly for convenience but are also open to suggestions about returning the car somewhere along the way if it’s not longer required (ie. for Drake Bay).
Mostly, we are wondering how necessary the 4×4 is – since it’s double or more the price of a compact car with most companies. Not sure how much off road exploring we intend to do, but we also have no idea what to expect…
Thanks in advance!!
Kelly
