Costa Rica Tourism
Tourism has quickly grown to become the nation's true principal source of income, surpassing both cattle ranching and exports of coffee and bananas. In 1999, for the first time, a million tourists visited Costa Rica. Increasingly, Ticos whose fathers and grandfathers were farmers find themselves hotel owners, tour guides, and waiters. While most have adapted gracefully and regard the industry as a source of new jobs and opportunities for economic advancement.
