Taxi Queue, Parque Central
They’re everywhere. Cheap and plentiful. The drivers will ask if you need a taxi when you leave your hotel. They’ll honk at you if they see you walking on the sidewalk. You’ll see them lined-up for a block or more waiting for customers. When it rains, really rains, even if you have an umbrella, all of a sudden you’re the one looking for them.

Museo Nacional
Downtown San Jose is easy to navigate on foot. It's a grid and most attractions are easy to find. To make it even more obvious, look for the bright blue signs that let you know when you’ve reached an “destino cultural” not to be missed.
