The 7 Farm Tours in Costa Rica Worth a Morning

1.Chocolate and Coffee Tour Farm Don Jorge

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 113 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $50Our pick

Tour a family farm in Alajuela for hands-on chocolate, coffee, sugar cane, tropical fruit, and a waterfall walk for $50.

“Had an awesome experience at the farm where we explored the premises on foot while being guided by the family who explained the whole chocolate making process and showed us various tropical fruits. We got to taste fresh sugar cane juice and participated in making our own chocolates with our group. We enjoyed the traditional hot chocolate while we learned about its history. Took a short hike to the beautiful waterfall where they allow swimming. It rained while we were there so we returned to enjoy some freshly made coffee from the farm. Don Jorge's sons were wonderful hosts, will definitely send friends their way and return ourselves. Highly recommend…”
