With a central location, San Jose province is an active, vibrant and cultured area, but also a convenient travel base to reach all other national destinations. The capital, of the same name, is located within the San Jose province. The province combines natural beauty and modern convenience.
You can discover picturesque mountain towns surrounding the central valley, most areas have high-speed internet, there are roaring rivers within hiking distance of hotels, restaurants, and museums overlooking breathtaking vistas. Most of the 4.5 million residents of Costa Rica live in the central valley and surrounding areas.
Most travelers fly to Costa Rica through Juan Santamaria International Airport (SJO) thinking that you land in San Jose but you actually are landing 25 minutes outside of the capital city. A quick transfer brings you to Sabana Park and the gateway of the city. Ask your planner about some of our new Foodie Tours and walking tours around San Jose.
