@@ericawillis4747 I would have some just in case! You can get colones from your bank ahead of time, but it takes some time and we didn’t plan ahead enough for that. You can also exchange at the airport (my experience was at San Jose). Don’t exchange at the counters that you see right when you get off the plane. Those take a large percentage of your money. At San Jose, you can exit the airport then re-enter on the upper floor, and there will be a bank inside before you go through security. They have a much better exchange rate and won’t take as large of a percentage! 👍
This was super helpful! Thanks for making this video.
