We are a family of five and are planning on hiring a driver for transport between locations. When in the Arenal area, will we be able to all get in one taxi?

Thanks.

Sorry - forgot to put Costa Rica in the subject.

When we traveled in a group of 7, we never had trouble getting a van big enough.

If you're talking about an actual taxi, the ones we caught in arenal were just like a regular cab - the size of a car with a front and back seat. I guess you could put one person in the front passenger seat and the rest in the back, but it would be tight I think. I'm assuming this is what you meant since you said you would have a driver only between locations. The drivers that take you from town to town usually drive vans.

Thanks, yes, although I wasn't clear, I meant a regular taxi while in town. We don't mind squeezing a bit -- but some places are strict about how many are allowed in a taxi. Thanks.
