Where to buy onward bus tickets online?

9 years ago
Hello All!

I will be traveling to Panama City in September from the United States. This will be my first solo international adventure, so I am very excited. I found a very reasonably priced one-way ticket into Panama, but from what I've read I'm pretty sure I need an onward ticket out of Panama in order to get into the country. I really don't want to buy a round trip ticket because I am not sure of when I will be returning to the US.

I heard that people frequently cross the border into Costa Rica in order to get the required stamp they need for their tourist visa to renew. It seems that there are bus tickets that are relatively inexpensive, but I am having trouble finding some that are available to purchase online; I need to have the ticket with me when I enter the country. I see websites with schedules, but no purchasing options. Similarly, I have found websites for companies that will buy one for you, but they don't mention anything about cost. Can anyone give me a few specific websites I can go to in order to buy a ticket from Panama to Costa Rica directly?

Thanks!
