    Im from Costa Rica, and I asure you this is a fairly safe country, but like everywhere else there are dangerous places and peoples to be avoided, if you come visit follow basic safety, keep your valuables and docs safe. If you want to go to the beach or the forest follow your guides advice. And dont go looking for illegal things.

    The USA elite in their pay for play fueled officialdom interest in bribery, extortion, and ransom.

    Something not ignored by impoverished citizens on finding defenseless tourists. Who would

    chase bicycling Europeans with knives. Judge your elite and their effects before blaming

    who they paid to keep you in constant fear. At Costa Rice or the USA.

    Having been there I never felt in any danger. But just like any place else, go looking for trouble you will find it so stay out of places you don't belong.

    Cost Rica is fairly safe. You only have to watch out for things like Dengue Fever. Most of the rest of Central America is hazardous to human life.

    Some foreign countries are more dangerous than others but I would not consider Costa Rica to be high on the dangerous countries list..

    But any country can be dangerous if you put yourself into dangerous/illegal situations.
