Best San José Tours in June

The bustling cosmopolitan metropolis of San Jose is the capital of Costa Rica and the nation's largest city. Surrounded by lush valleys and green mountains, San Jose is home to around half of Costa Rica’s population. The life of the city is centered around downtown San Jose where many of the city’s museums, hotels and plazas rest, including the Museo de Oro Precolombino y Numismática, which contains Costa Rica's most priceless pieces of pre-Columbian gold and other artifacts. Bargain hunters will love the Mercado Central, or Central Market, where coffee beans and cigars can be bought cheaply.
