Reasons to Travel to Costa Rica with kids

I love sharing my experiences on Google maps and this includes my family vacation! I relied on Google maps as I navigating this new country with my entire family packed into a rental van.

The best decision I’ve ever made was to book a 4 week trip with the entire family to Costa Rica. I have a family with 3 children (1,2, and 5 years old), so you could understand my hesitation. But here’s why it’s worth trying out:

  • Family friendly everywhere you go. All the excursions we booked they made it easy for strollers, kids, etc.

  • Easy to rent a 7 passenger vehicle and the driving rules are identical to North America.

  • Beaches!!

  • Wildlife is insane! In a good way! So many national parks showcasing all the monkeys, sloths, crocodiles, and birds you could dream of seeing.

  • Direct flights to come here with 2 international airports depending on which coastline you want to visit.

  • The people here are all very friendly. They love babies!

Give it a try! You will be pleasantly surprised with this central america country.
