Yes, Costa Rica has made significant strides in promoting accessible tourism. Many hotels, resorts, and lodges offer accommodations tailored for guests with mobility challenges.
These facilities often include ramps, wider doorways, grab bars, and roll-in showers.
Additionally, some tour operators specialise in accessible adventures, ensuring that even activities like zip-lining or national park visits are inclusive.
Costa Rica offers several accessible nature attractions. Manuel Antonio National Park has paved pathways and beach wheelchairs, making it easier for visitors with mobility challenges.
Carara National Park features an accessible trail with interpretive signage. The Arenal Volcano area has viewpoints and some hot springs that are wheelchair-friendly.
Additionally, the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve has made efforts to improve accessibility. For a unique experience, some canopy tours and hanging bridge walks have adapted to accommodate visitors with disabilities.
While Costa Rica has made progress in accessibility, its public transportation system varies in terms of accommodation for disabled visitors.
Some newer buses in urban areas are equipped with ramps and designated spaces for wheelchairs. However, many rural routes and older buses may not have these features. Taxis are more flexible, but not all are equipped for wheelchair users. The San José international airport offers accessibility services, but it's advisable to notify them in advance.
For the most convenient travel, consider renting an accessible vehicle or using specialised transportation services that cater to disabled visitors.
But not to worry, Limitless will help you with all of this!
Costa Rica is a great year round destination but many visitors find the dry season (December to April) is the easiest for accessible sightseeing with more predictable weather and less challenging terrain. If you’re travelling in the rainy season planning accessible transport and flexible excursions will help make the experience smoother.
We recommend light clothing for warm weather, sun protection, insect repellent and any daily use mobility or medical items. It’s also a good idea to bring copies of prescriptions, travel insurance documents and a small supply of basic spares (e.g. wheelchair repair items) if relevant.
Our disabled holidays in Costa Rica are designed to help you enjoy everything this beautiful country has to offer while accessibility and support is always considered.
