How much spending money do I need for 16 days in Costa Rica?

I am going with a tour group in late Feb and was trying to figure out my budget. I am planing for $1000 for optionals. Like whitewater rafting,zip lining, hikes and all that other junk. I don't think I will need that much but I would rather have extra rather than not enough.

I am having trouble figuring out how much spending money I will need. The website says to bring $400 to $500 for food. So other than that how much spending money should I budget for?

    Restaurants are not that expensive, less than Canada or USA. For example, I ate a tuna fillet in Manuel Antonio for 16$ at The Avion.

    About lodging, you can compare price on this website:

    Zip lining and rafting will be expensive, between 50-100$.

    National Park are at 10$ fees entrance.

    With 1000$ you'll be alright.

    Buses and taxis are cheap too.

    Have a good trip!

    It depends on how much things cost and what you really want to do over there.
