Typical models of the minivan/minibus class in Costa Rica are: Ford Galaxy 7 seater, VW Caravelle, VW Touran, Chevrolet Uplander, Citroen C8 Tdi, Ford Club Wagon 15 Seater and others.

Standard capacity of a minivan in Costa Rica is up to 9 people (8+1 formula), traditionally providing seven or eight passenger seats. The capacity of a minibus may vary from 9 to 15 people.

Please note, that in order to rent in Costa Rica a vehicle with capacity which exceeds 8 passengers, you would need a driving license of the corresponding category.

Minivan dimensions are quite unusual for an ordinary driver, which sometimes leads to appearance of scratches and dents during unsuccessful manoeuvring or parking. Therefore, we encourage you to order full coverage of insurance franchise during your booking, or directly at the rental office in Costa Rica.

Before leaving the parking garage in Costa Rica, inspect the minivan for exteriour defects and other signs of damage together with the office representative and mark the found defects found in your rental documents.

OrangeSmile.com wishes you a great driving experience on the roads of Costa Rica!

Driving Advices for Costa Rica – Traffic Regulations and Road Usage Peculiarities
Previous hints
In case of a traffic violation, a police officer will give you a bill that can be paid at any bank. Foreign drivers should never argue with the police and do not even try to offer a bribe - in this case a mere fine may be followed by an even more severe punishment.
Travelers, who plan to go to remote areas of the country and visit beautiful local nature reserves, are recommended to choose a powerful car for that travel. The roads that are laid in beautiful areas rarely have the asphalt surface. As a rule, these are very narrow and winding dirt roads.
Wooden bridges are pretty common for the countryside. In most cases only one car can move on such bridges. Drivers should move on such bridges very carefully and slowly. In addition to the driving license got in the home country, you will also need to receive the international driver's permit. The presence of this document will help to resolve all problems with local police much quicker.
