AVIS CAR RENTAL COSTA RICA
Costa Rica is known for its incredible bio-diversity and array of natural wildlife, which can be seen in their native habitats.
Every vehicle is rented with five high quality tires which are checked pre- and post- rental, but with Costa Rican road trips often covering long distances, flats do happen. While the Avis Roadside SafetyNet emergency services include flat tire assistance and replacement, you may choose to change for the spare yourself.
Escazu is one of the most affluent neighborhoods near the country’s capital with a large ex-pat community of Americans, Canadians and Europeans, it has a high concentration of residents in the mid- to upper-range incomes and boasts amenities like upscale shopping, restaurants and condominiums.
This is a quaint farm community off the beaten path in the Talamanca Mountains, but known among birdwatchers. Fresh mountain air, majestic scenery and of course, spotting the elusive Quetzal lure visitors to this remote mountain town. Frequent rainfall and high elevations of over 2,000 meters above sea level mean a cool and at times damp climate with highs in the 70’s(21C) and lows in the 50’s(10C).
La Guaria Morada (the purple country girl) is the national flower of Costa Rica characterized by its thin long petals, it represents good luck. The plant thrives in the humid rainforests of Central America, and has long been grown and used to adorn church alters during Lent and Easter, and to decorate courtyards and roofs in colonial cities like Cartago and Escazu.
