By Larry Habegger | Permalink | No Comments | April 4th, 2007 | Trackback

The Costa Rican Tourism Institute has produced a safety card for tourists that lists a 24-hour hotline to report problems or get tips about travel around the country. The hotline number is 800-TOURISM or 800-TURISMO. The back of the card has a list of emergency phone numbers, including those of many foreign embassies. The card is being distributed at San Jose’s Santamaria International Airport and will soon be available at Daniel Oduber International Airport in Liberia, Guanacaste. Officials hope to distribute it at ports and land border crossings as well.
