Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch
Description
We offer more than just chocolate, Firstly, the chocolate tour begins with the cultural and biological background of cacao in Costa Rica. It further introduces into the collecting, fermenting, grinding and finally the making of chocolate, the drink of the gods. Secondly, we talk about coffee and its importance for Costa Rica's economic and cultural development. We have a showroom with important coffee picking instruments and a better explanation of the process of coffee production. We want to show you how to make Café-Chorreado. Amongst other sampling methods. Finally, we want to look at one of the most important aspects of Costarican culture and tradition, the trapiche. Here we grind sugar cane to extract the juice and make all kinds of local and delicious candy. This is for sure the sweetest tour in the area. We have recently added a MEDICINAL PLANTS GARDEN TO OUR EXPERIENCE

We booked this tour on a whim before heading out of town and we are so glad we did! Sergio was a great tour guide and very entertaining. The tasting we got to do was just an added bonus! Don’t think about it….book it!
We're so glad you enjoyed the experience, and we hope to welcome you back the next time you're in Costa Rica!
This was a very informative tour. Sergio,the guide, did an excellent job providing information, making the tour fun and interactive. He spent time also making connections with the tourists by learning their names, and their whereabouts and professions. He truly made an effort to make it meaningful by drawing from people personal lives. It was fun to try the chocolate sauce with spices and fruit. We learned about the chocolate production, the benefits of chocolate. We learned about vanilla, coffee, and sugar cain.
