Add this one to your itinerary! The waterfall was a sight to see. The cacao plantation was an interactive and great experience to learn from. The rainforest was a lovely walk through, and I got my chance to see a sloth and so much more.
The unique atmosphere of the Rain forest!!!

Kevin, the boss of Costours agency shared his love of Costarica, its fauna, its flora.... We were accompanied by Johnny, animal guide, botanist... We visited the refuge of the sloths, and took a tour in the Rain forest, walked on the suspension bridges, in an unreal atmosphere, unforgettable moments!
A memorable day with friends!

Our tour guide Luis was fantastic. Great sense of humor and a wealth of knowledge about the area. The gentleman at the chocolate farm was also knowledgeable about local plants. Luis took care of everything! Had a great lunch. Stopped when we needed too. Picked us up and dropped us off right at our doorstep.
One of my favorite tours of the trip.

A beautiful day filled with discoveries! All our senses have been stimulated. The rainforest, its flora, sloths, frogs, birds, and I pass in a real forest. Followed by a swim in the enchanted setting of heavenly Rio to cool off. A favorite with the delicious typical meal in the mountains. The best frijoles of the stay! To finish a visit to a cocoa plantation, we even picked cocoa and enjoyed the best milk chocolate! Many thanks to Memo for his support throughout this day!
Beautiful scenery, butterflies, hummingbirds and chocolate!

We had a great day with Memo (Guillermo). The chocolate plantation is most interesting and we had a lot of fun making our own chocolates. Lunch at the little Soda in Bijagua was excellent. We highly recommend Costours.

I absoluty loved this experience. I learned every step how chocolate is made from seed to chocolate bar. Do not miss this tour it was a SUPER EXPERIENCE. It was educational and fun. My guide did illustrates and explains every step and ending making my own chocolate using different flavor combination. This is not ordinary tour.
