Typical Rental Dilemma
Should I Rent or Bring My GPS to Costa
Rica?
One of the most frequently asked questions
posed by renters is whether a GPS is really
needed. The answer is, “How well do you
know Costa Rica?” Costa Rica’s road
network is famous for its inconsistent or
completely absent signage.
It is possible to download digital maps to
serve as an improvised GPS for many smart phones as well as relying on other apps/systems
such as Waze or Garmin; however, most of these programs are often developed outside the
country with limited knowledge of the practical routes AND most require an Internet
connection to receive the directions in usable real-time. You can certainly use Google
Earth/Maps, but when it suggests taking a ferry route instead of a road, then you’ll be out of
luck — and several hours out of your way. Therefore, it is highly recommended to use the
company that is the authority in Costa Rica — NavSat, which supplies the Ez-Find GPS with
the most reliable information.
Throughout Costa Rica, every [rent-a-car company] that offers GPS rentals uses software from
NavSat. This is because NavSat’s maps are updated at least twice a year to maintain relevancy
and accuracy, providing true customer satisfaction.
