Guitarras Garro y Arguedas

4.3(7 reviews)

About

Guitarras Garro y Arguedas in Costa Rica has its premises on C. 2, San José, Dolorosa, Costa Rica. That places it in the capital, well inland from the Pacific and Caribbean coasts.

Reaching San José is straightforward, as the city anchors the country's road and bus network, and intercity buses are the main form of public transport. A 4.3 out of 5 average from 7 reviews reflects a small but positive set of responses. Costa Rica drives on the right, which matters for anyone arriving by hire car.

Spanish is the main language spoken across Costa Rica, so a few local words help with routine exchange. Altitude shapes the weather, so the Central Valley and mountain towns are cooler than the coasts.

Costa Rican cooking uses fresh fruit, plantain and Salsa Lizano, and coffee from the Central Valley is a major export. Tamarindo, Santa Teresa, Manuel Antonio, Jacó, Puerto Viejo, La Fortuna and Monteverde sit within reach for onward travel.
