When I visited Costa Rica, I stayed at a bed and breakfast that provided a ride to and from the airport. This allowed me to avoid the whole crazy cab driver scene outside the airport. Also, some places in Latin America like San Jose don't have official addresses, which can make taking a cab even more difficult. While staying at the B&B I carried a card they gave me that described where it was in Spanish. It said something like, "two blocks from the Steak House off the main road." Great post.
