Now just may be the time to visit Costa Rica, if you can manage to make the trip that is. The economy is on a down-turn everywhere, including Costa Rica, making your vacation even more affordable. If you have been saving up to take a trip, now is the time to do it!
If you watch ticket prices at all, check out the fares on www.kayak.com, www.cheaptickets.com, www.orbitz.com and even www.expedia.com (which in my opinion never has that great of prices). All the fares are down a large percentage from what they were last year at this time. Everyone is trying to make the sale, even if that means lowering prices way down.
I saw tickets from Chicago and Miami to San Jose roundtrip for $270 dollars and from Dallas for under $300.
In addition to ticket prices going down, it’s the green season, which means lots of rain, and lower prices at hotels and tour companies. So, combine the suffering economy with the season and you have some amazing discounts on your vacation.
(Added bonus – less people are taking vacations now, leaving you with more sandy beach all to yourself!)
In addition the Costa Rica National Chamber of Tourism is still working to improve the tourism industry in Costa Rica. They seem to be one of the few departments in Central America that really gets that it takes time for an investment to pay off, and a good product requires a good investment.
So it may be rainy, but it’s still beautiful! Take the time to make a trip to Costa Rica now; you never know when fares will be this cheap again!
