San Jose CR, Costa Rica: SUV and Offroad Rental Tips
The most popular SUV models offered at rental locations in San Jose CR are: Hyundai Santa Fe, Daihatsu Terios, Jeep Cherokee, Nissan Pathfinder 4WD, Toyota Landcruiser, Hyundai Tuscon and others.

While selecting your preferred model of an off-road vehicle, please examine the rental conditions. In particular, those requirements that concern credit cards – when it comes to renting an expensive car, sometimes offices in Costa Rica ask information about two credit cards.

Before signing the contract in the rental office upon arrival, check that the invoice figures match with figures in your voucher.

Once the vehicle is assigned, inspect it carefully before leaving the parking. Crossovers and SUVs are often used in tough road conditions, therefore scratches and other exteriour defects are inevitable. Due to this, it is important to check and specify all existing defects in your rental documents.

If you plan to use an off-road vehicle in the mountains, it is recommended to order snow chains. This will save you from unexpected incidents. Other important equipment in Costa Rica are mandatory child seats for travellers with children. OrangeSmile.com wishes you a safe trip and green lights on the roads of San Jose CR!

Driving Advices for Costa Rica – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
Travelers, who plan to go to remote areas of the country and visit beautiful local nature reserves, are recommended to choose a powerful car for that travel. The roads that are laid in beautiful areas rarely have the asphalt surface. As a rule, these are very narrow and winding dirt roads.
Wooden bridges are pretty common for the countryside. In most cases only one car can move on such bridges. Drivers should move on such bridges very carefully and slowly. In addition to the driving license got in the home country, you will also need to receive the international driver's permit. The presence of this document will help to resolve all problems with local police much quicker.
Roads, laid close to the capital or in its territory, usually have the heaviest traffic. Foreign guests will certainly notice a huge number of old cars and SUVs on the roads of the country – in true, it is possible to reach some settlements by an off-road vehicle only.
