Should I go backpacking to Mexico or Costa Rica?

Both countries appeal, is there much difference with costs and safety? I'll be backpacking solo and know a little Spanish so hopefully that won't be an issue. I imagine Costa Rica is cheaper but I then saw some people say it is really expensive?

Both are special in their own ways, Mexico has ruins, temples, beaches and parties. Costa Rica is one of the best eco destinations on the planet. Browse our Central America gap year directory for trips and ideas for things to do in this region.
