I am heading down to Arenal and Jaco in mid March and looking for place to ride.  I read good things about Motoadventuring.  Any body have any tips or advice about them or any other place to make a day ride. I have never been to Costa Rica before.  I am from Charleston South Carolina.

Thanks

Larry is supposed to be a good guy.
All the tour companies are priced about the same.
There is a place in Jaco that rents bikes for $50 a day....
I will be down there first part of Marzo, might be buying a bike this trip , working the dream!

I seem to be leaning towards Full Tours Costa Rica.  Do you know anything about them?

[bajataxi TT Silver Member]

Edgar Quesada, Full Tours. http://www.fulltourscostarica.com/
They are the Husaberg dealer and sponsor Javier Araya who is the CR enduro campeon. They also put on enduros almost every weekend.
My first stop is their shop, to look at some bikes.....

BAJATAXI  I am having a hard time getting a response from FullTours.  Any advice to get a hold of them.  They have an opening for next Tuesday and trying to lock it down.  Do you have any other advice for me when I go.

How was it?
I bought the bike, met with some potential partners, found some good trails. Working the dream! Now, how to quit the day job and live there? Next trip down in July.

Has anyone tried Costa Rica Unbound or Costa Rica Unlimited lately?

[bajataxi TT Silver Member]

According to the Marea Brava, Costa Rica Unbound is no longer in business......
