Consejos para la ciudad
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Avoid walking out at night for safety reasons.
We recommend not staying out late at night even though the neighbourhood is pretty quiet and calm at night. During the day there is activity on the 10th avenue and it's pretty safe.
Qué debes empacar
Always carry around an umbrella!
During rainy season, which is practically lasts for half a year, you should carry an umbrella just in case.
Facilidad para moverse por la casa
Uber is the most comfortable to travel around
Uber is pretty useful inside the city, especially outside rush hour. However, if you're going outside downtown San José and visiting places far away I would recommend renting a car (4x4 if you're going to a rocky area or beach).
