77. Costa Rica
The best time to save money in Costa Rica is from May to mid-December during the rainy “green season.” The truth is there are still enough sunny days to relax on the beach. Stay outside of the tourist towns–Arenal and San Jose. Most of the national parks charge a low entrance fee but you can spend the day hiking at the Volcano Arenal. Avoid the guided hikes and simply follow the signs. You can also go canoeing, horseback riding, or relax in the hot springs.

The design of this website looks awesome, not bad content either.
I did not design it although I agree with you!
Interested in that article
Hi!
I am happy to hear you enjoyed it!
SURELY you’re only referring to the costs once you actually GET there. The cost of airfare alone would be HIGH to over half of these places, from the central U.S. anyway. Don’t you think that should be considered when you’re talking “cheap?” After all…flying is the only way you can get to most of these places.
Hi!
I believe, unless otherwise noted, we are not referring to airfare. After all, this is a column read by people all over the world. I believe we do sometimes reference when the air costs are cheaper.
Since this is an article about tropical vacations, it is a given that you will need to include airfare in your budget, of course. As one could rightly infer from your comment, you can’t drive to these places. Thanks for your comment and your support!
Why Not mentioned INDIA….
One of the most beautiful place in The world. Kerala
Hi!
I am seldom in charge–if ever–of making the final choices. While India, according to the Koppen climate classification system anyway, would count as a tropical country, perhaps it was not as cheap as the 11 included here. I generally am given a set list and unless I take the time to justify changes to the powers that be, the lists are set before I write the articles. (Another possibility is it was booted off the list since we mention India in a lot of Taj Mahal-related articles.) Thanks for your comment and your support!
Well,can you recomand me a agency?To deal with those places?
