COSTA RICA'S LEADING ENGLISH LANGUAGE NEWSPAPER

HomeEditorialTico Times Travel Beta: A New Beginning

Tico Times Travel Beta: A New Beginning

If you’ve clicked here, you’ve stumbled across the beta version of The Tico Time’s new travel site. We’ve decided to share it with those intrepid cybernauts who happen across in hopes that you’ll share your thoughts with us. And if you don’t see much new material over the next couple of weeks, don’t let that keep you from coming back. We’re putting together a series of articles, columns, and lists that will help you better experience Costa Rica from your armchair – and will hopefully induce you to check out some of those destinations yourself.

Our full launch will be in January, so stay tuned. Costa Rica’s oldest English-language new source knows Costa Rica. Now we’re sharing that knowledge with you.

Share with us, too. Feel free to email me directly: pmajerle@ticotimes.net

I hope to hear from you soon.

Happy travels,

Peter Majerle
