Review: Very informative, TINY fonts - Very informative but very difficult to read. They’re trying to cram so much information on each page that the type face is minuscule. I use reading glasses and don’t normally have a problem with a normal 6-8 font but this book causes strain even with glasses. I would rather the book be a little larger or their baby less info on each page Review: Four Stars - Good book to have. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,038,922 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #436 in Costa Rica Travel Guides #1,049 in General Central America Travel Guides | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 71 Reviews | ## Images ![The Rough Guide to Costa Rica - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/9173D7nRLKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very informative, TINY fonts *by J***E on August 29, 2022* Very informative but very difficult to read. They’re trying to cram so much information on each page that the type face is minuscule.

It has some good information, but could be better organized and have better explanations of how it chooses the places it recommends. It also doesn't include some highlights of places to visit and things to do. If you're looking for a really good guide to CR, look hard for other guides. Note -- you should bring a physical guide book to CR instead of just relying on online guides. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/54711480-the-rough-guide-to-costa-rica](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/54711480-the-rough-guide-to-costa-rica) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-10-31*
