Chris and Brenda provide a great service to those who are fortunate enough to visit this great place. Almost everything you are looking for, they know where it is. If they don’t, they know how to find out quickly. I felt guilty about using their service and not paying anything so I went back a couple of days later to see I I could donate even a couple thousand colones. Nope. Being a blunt person, I asked how they monetized the operation. They have a website ( samarainfocenter.com ) where the various hotels etc pay to place their ads. A great place to get further info. Since I couldn’t pay for the valuable help I received, I put a couple thousand into the school clothing/books can. This is a “Don’t miss them” place when in Samara. On Main Street on the right as you come into town.
