Costa Rica, Nicaragua & Panama Handbook: Travel guide to Costa Rica, Nicaragua & Panama

Product DescriptionDiscovering the Darien Gap, sailing Central America’s largest lake, and walking in the clouds in Costa Rica may seem like a dream, but with Footprint’s new guide to Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama—the only guide that covers these three countries—it is now easier than ever to translate into reality! From lush rainforests, rushing waterfalls, and erupting volcanoes to secluded beaches, scenic countryside, and traditional farming villages, this must-have guide takes travelers off the beaten track. Great suggestions for the best sites to visit and things to do will help visitors get the most out of this rich and biodiverse region, which is not to mention Footprint’s customary comprehensive listings of all the top places to eat, drink, and sleep, as well as details on how to get around.

About the AuthorPeter Hutchison has traveled extensively in Latin America and is also the author of Footprint Costa Rica.
