As the country that sparked my wanderlust, Costa Rica<\/a> will always have a special place in my heart. The lush jungles, the stunning waterfalls, the incredible wildlife, and the super friendly locals who have a love for love – it’s all just great. Costa Rica a beautiful, beautiful country.<\/p>\n It\u2019s also a perfect destination to road trip.<\/a> Since distances aren\u2019t too long, you can easily get a good feel for some of the main areas in the country in one week. (If you\u2019ve got more time, great! You can extend your stays in places or even add on more destinations. I\u2019ll share a few recommendations at the end). <\/p>\n But, even with just seven days, you can cover a lot of ground. The freedom of having your own wheels means that you won\u2019t be beholden to bus schedules or end up forking out a lot of money for expensive tourist shuttles. That means you\u2019ll save both time and money.<\/p>\n To help you plan your trip, here\u2019s my ideal one-week Costa Rica road trip itinerary:<\/p>\n\n My go-to rental car company in Costa Rica is Vamos.
