Good to know
Rental age requirements generally aren't a one-size-fits-all. Providers can set their own policies, and if you're a younger driver, you could encounter extra costs or restrictions. Check the terms set by each supplier before booking your rental in Costa Rica.
If the kids are coming with you, check if you need to add a child car seat to your Liberia car hire booking. Whether local laws require them or not, they're always the safest way for youngsters to travel.
Bring the right documents and save time at pick-up. You'll typically need your physical driver's licence (not a screenshot or digital version) plus another photo ID. Also bring along a credit card with room for the security hold. If extra requirements apply, your booking will list them.
Driving in Costa Rica can seem unfamiliar if it's your first time. Keep in mind traffic flows on the right side of the road.
Make sure you stay within the local speed limits. Usually that's around 45kph in built-up areas and 95kph or so on highways, unless signs say otherwise.
The blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit in Costa Rica is 0.05%. Because alcohol affects everyone differently, it's best to skip drinks entirely so you remain legal to drive.
Aim to travel outside high-traffic periods for a smoother run in general. 8am is one of the busiest times to be on the road in this destination.
