Travel Tip: A bus stop anywhere you like

4 stars
Published on Feb 13, 2008 by anja78 for Costa Rica

Travelling by bus in Costa Rica is a bit different than taking a bus in Europe or other western countries. Sometimes the bus might stop every couple of hundred meters because somebody wants to get on board - you can flag the bus down anywhere and that literally means anywhere. If the driver just stopped for somebody else a few steps away they will stop again for you. And many people tend to take the bus to go just one block or less. This can become quite annoying for the passerngers not used to these customs.
