Is it safe to take a child to Costa Rica? |
Travel Info I have a 2 1/2 year old son. I am not sure if it safe to take him to Costa Rica or not. I hear they have kidnappings. Is this true? Travel Tips Hi. I lived in COsta RIca for 2 years. My children then were 13 and 6. They were never kidnapped where we lived. In the big cities like San Jose you will need to keep an eye on them but you would do the same if you went to New YOrk City. There will not be people looking to steal your son so dont worry. If you do go to Costa Rica I recommend traveling light (no obvious money, purses etc in the open). Keep everything close. Go to the Nicoya Peninsula, Guanacaste. The places you will visit like Samara, Carrillo, San Miguel are spectacular. Also, go with someone who speaks a little Spanish for a more enjoyable time. I traveled around with my children by myself ALL THE TIME. I do speak spanish but the locals are always willing to help. Don't forget, they have kidnappings all over the world. You and your son will have a great time. If you need more info leave an email address and I can write you again. Source(s): Lived there for 2 years. Other Travel Tips Costa Rica is VERY safe. Some other Central American countries aren't as safe, but CR is fine. You are probably just as safe as whereever you live now, seriously. Yes, Costa Rica is a good place to visit or move to. A lot of Americans and Canadians live there. It's one of the most popular vacation spots in Central America. You should have no problems. Just be careful, the same as if you were visiting Disneyland or Washington D.C. Enjoy your trip! Your Real Estate Professionals Move to Latin America Corp. No comments. I give up. Yes it is safe. There are SOOOOO many children here, kidnapping is VERY VERY unlikely yes, no problems outside of San Jose and Jaco! |
