Nice map

Rating: Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

This is a very nice quality, easy to read, larger print, durable map. It is well made and lasted through 2 weeks in Costa Rica. Hotels, restaurants, beaches, activities and parks are listed as well as a mini Spanish lesson of common phrases. We'll be taking it again next month when we head back down.

A must have!!!

Haven't even gone on trip yet , but have good idea where things are and will have when we go. You don't always have the internet there. Plus it's water proof!!

The map is somewhat helpful. However, the map is similar to the roads you find in Costa Rica, not marked. I was hoping for more I guess. It is waterproof but we did not experierence alot of rain. Frankly, I'd go with another map, waterproof or not, and a GPS. GPS worked like a charm.

Awesome map

Rating: Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

Haven't been on my trip yet but this is an awesome map with so much detail. Having it be waterproof will surely come in handy with the rain and humidity we're sure to encounter. I would definitely recommend this map to anyone planning a trip to Costa Rica. Well worth the money.

Get one. You will not be sorry.

I tried to get one of these Waterproof Travel Map of Costa Rica before I left for Costa Rica but it was not in stock at the time. Too bad. It is hard to find a good map in Costa Rica and, if I would have had this with me, it would have saved me some time as I made a big loop through the country. I never get lost ;>) but, since the only map I had was from the car rental company, there were a few times I was not 'exactly' sure I knew where I was or how the heck to get to where I was going. On some roads, you can travel for miles without any indication of what road you are on and I don't mean just side roads.

This map has street maps for the larger cities which would have been very useful in San Jose. I plan to go back to Costa Rica so when I got home I ordered 3. One for me, a back-up for me and one for a friend that lives there and told me that good maps are hard to find.

If you plan a trip to Costa Rica, and plan to travel, it is simple...Get One (or 2).
