Sorry. I meant for this to go on the Costa Rica board.

Oops. Do you mean where in Costa Rica? Not sure. Probably the Orosi Valley. We want to see some of the countryside away from the major tourist destinations. Would like to see family run farms, oxen at work, perhaps local markets? Been to Sarchi...too commercial. Any suggestions?

Home phone is 2490582

Costa Rica Country Code is (506)
There is no area code in Costa Rica.

There are many good driver/tour guides in Costa Rica so I am sure you will not get a bad one.
