James G, Basically, you have two main choices: taxi or Uber. After reading several reviews and learning about the headaches associated with taxis, we chose the latter. This was our first experience using the company; however, the process was easy. Uber drivers are professional and able to navigate the crazy traffic of the capital. Best of all, Ubers are dirt cheap (around $7-10 or so per trip depending on the time of day). Once we got downtown, we had a little trouble finding a free WI-FI signal for our phone to contact Uber for the trip back to the hotel; however, we stood on the steps outside the Gold Museum (up the street a few blocks from the Central Market) and got a signal. The downtown strip was safe with lots of families and a great learning experience. Go for it! Hope this helps! Dp

Yes, but they don’t accepted $100 or $50 bills only $20 or less

Get uber.

As I remember, the market is closed on Sunday and there is not much to do as not much is open on Sunday.

Yes lots of souvenirs

We didn’t go directly from the airport but I’m guessing about 15-20 min taxi ride. Take the RED taxis in San Jose and agree on an amount before you get in the cab. We did this and always got a good deal. Met others who didn’t and they ended up paying exorbitant amounts!!

Not far, but traffic is crazy lol. Maybe 45 min.

Most of the stalls are open

Hi. Just called the main office. Sunday is closed. Officially Rest of the days is open from 6:30am to 6pm

Aproximadamente unos USD 7 u 8, dependiendo del plato. Los desayunos son más baratos. El Mercado Central como tal está abierto desde las 7 am hasta las 5:30 am, pero desde las 6 am abren ciertas puertas para que entren los empleados y ciertas "soditas" (pequeños restaurantes) empiezan a funcionar a esa hora, como por ejemplo la Soda Tala.
