Advice on San José, Costa Rica

Picture
When you live abroad, you learn a thing or two about different customs. And if you survive to tell about it, you are hopefully nice enough to share some wisdom. 

We have waited in long lines, shown up at the wrong times, gotten lost, eaten terrible food, lost money and overpaid for many items, all so you don't have to.

We do our best to share our knowledge here on our GENERAL ADVICE and SAFETY PAGE. We also offer our up-to-date knowledge for custom trip planning with our Concierge Service. 

We hope you enjoy, and if you have any of your own advice to share please email us at BarrioBird@gmail.com.

Be sure to see our tours and packages:
  • Bird's Nest - Overview of the City
  • Artist Bird -  Explore the Creative Side of Costa Rica
  • Hungry Bird - Sample Local Food
  • Combine Your Favorite Tours for Only $10 more!
