If you are looking for a unique experience that combines culture and horseback riding, this tour will leave you in awe. I highly recommend it! The entire experience was truly amazing. We went horseback riding to a waterfall, passing through coffee fields, forests, and a village. Afterward, we returned to a charming farmer’s house for a quick snack, along with coffee / hot chocolate. The farmhouse is authentically Costa Rican, filled with character and charm, and beautifully designed with many unique pieces of furniture and art.

The tour was fantastic. Our ride through the coffee plantation on horseback was relaxing and the Aquiares Waterfall was magical. Our guide Andrew was very knowledgeable about coffee and fun facts about Costa Rica. We had a very lovely morning and at the end we got to try some delicious coffee grown and made right there at the source with an assortment of fruit and handmade bread. I was skeptical that this would be fun for my 6 year old but she absolutely loved it. I highly recommend this excursion.

Experience Aquiares Coffee Farm My husband and I did a 4-hour horse riding afternoon tour. We decided to take a public bus from San Jose to Turrialba. I discovered that public transportation in Costa Rica is safe, organized, efficient, and very affordable ($3.00 one way for both of us). We got to enjoy the scenery during the two-hour trip. We were received at Casa Hacienda La Esperanza with a delicious home-grown and brewed coffee, bread, and fruits before beginning our ride through the coffee farm. Next time, we have to stay a few days at La Esperanza as the place is truly beautiful. The best asset of the tour is the wonderful people who received us. Our guide, Andrew, was friendly and very informative about Aquiares coffee farm, the largest in Costa Rica. Christian, who guided the horses, was very patient and also shared information about the coffee country. We got to see the waterfall, river, church, community, and the coffee shop (buy coffee there!). We truly enjoyed this experience; it is highly recommended.

The entire experience was amazing! My two friends and I booked the horseback tour and lunch. The views were stunning, and our tour guide, Andrew, was the best! He was very knowledgeable and funny. We got to see a waterfall and take a quick dip in calm water near it (bring or wear a swimsuit underneath your clothes). Lunch was delicious, and we ate outside to continue to enjoy the beautiful views. Can't wait to come back!

This was one of the relaxing events I did while in Costa Rica. The guides was very informative and super friendly. The light lunch at the end was amazing, and so was the coffee.

Everything was as described the best part for me was the waterfall and the dinner but please note that the dinner isn’t included with the tour you’ll have to request it after tour but they do have drinks and fruits that you may have before and after your tour starts that’s included with tour they treated me like I was at home I really enjoyed it and would definitely come back.
