A package is not necessary. Allow extra time if you are renting a car,
because what may look like a short distance mileage-wise will take longer
depending on road conditions. Luckily it should be dry that time of year. Do
not miss the canopy tour in Monteverde, worth every penny! Beautiful country

We are a family of two adults and three kids : 12, 11, and 3. We are
exploring
a trip to Costa Rica. Do we really have to buy a package? We'd rather
not
to save some money and be able to do extra activities and/or stay in
better
accommodations. Any recommendations
thanks
