travel guide
 
Can anyone recommend a good travel guide for Costa Rica? We have our hotels and inland transportation set, but would like some suggestions regarding restaurants, activities, etc. Would also like a little bit of history. Thanks.

Moon handboook is great; lots of history, nature, etc. I also personally liked Frommer's a lot.
