Experience the natural and cultural highlights of northern Costa Rica in one unforgettable day.

Begin with a rainforest hike in Tenorio Volcano National Park to the spectacular Rio Celeste Waterfall, famous for its striking blue waters. Then, take a guided wildlife walk focused on spotting sloths, while also looking for toucans, frogs, snakes, and, with some luck, a Baird’s tapir.

Enjoy a traditional Costa Rican lunch at Sabor de Doña Carmen, a local soda in colorful Bijagua, a small town surrounded by two volcanoes. After lunch, visit the butterfly garden to see the beautiful blue morpho butterfly.

Finish at a small farm at the foot of the volcanoes for a cacao, chocolate, and coffee experience. Learn how coffee and cacao are grown and processed, taste Costa Rican coffee, and discover different cacao products, including cacao tea, dark chocolate, and sweet chocolate.

A great way to experience Costa Rica through its rainforest, wildlife, traditional food, and local flavors.
