Recommendations if you travel by bus
The advantage of buying tickets online is that you will have priority in line, since there are two lines in the terminal, one for people who bought the ticket on the spot and another line with priority to leave bags and choose seats in the bus for those who bought online.
I recommend you arrive at 8 am to be one of the first to board the bus.
The bus halfway (two hours after starting the tour) makes a stop at an intermediate terminal to go to the bathroom ($400 colones) and you will find a food court at the bottom with lunches from $3,500 colones
I recommend that you have lunch, this way when you arrive in La Fortuna you will be ready for your other activities.
When you arrive at Terminal de la Fortuna right there you can find a supermarket called MegaSuper
