There is more to coffee than drinking it. The guide helped us see coffee in a new way. Sarchi was also enjoyable.
This tour was a complete disappointment. The guide had no real knowledge of coffee and couldn’t answer even basic questions. On top of that, he made disrespectful comments about Nicaraguans and Panamanians, which was uncomfortable and unacceptable. His language skills were poor, making communication frustrating throughout the day. The pickup time was changed last minute from 9:00 to 10:20, and because of the 24-hour cancellation policy, I was stuck. We spent more time sitting in the car than actually seeing or learning anything of value. Do not book this tour. Skip the intermediaries and take an Uber directly to a coffee farm instead.
We’re very concerned by your feedback and sincerely regret that this tour did not meet acceptable standards. Any disrespectful or discriminatory comments are completely unacceptable and do not reflect our values or the experience we aim to provide. This matter has been escalated immediately for internal review with the guide involved. We take this type of behavior extremely seriously. Regarding the itinerary, pickup times can occasionally change due to logistics, but we understand how frustrating last‑minute changes can be. We also regret that you felt the time spent driving outweighed the value of the experience, and that the guiding and communication did not meet expectations. Refunds and cancellations for bookings made through Viator are governed by Viator’s policies, which unfortunately we are not able to override directly. That said, your feedback is being used to review guide training, language proficiency, and tour representation to prevent this from happening again. We appreciate you sharing your experience, as it helps us identify where immediate improvements are needed.
This place is very interesting for coffee lovers like me us. You have a basic lunch. You are taken on an onsite tour about how different varieties of coffee are produced and processed. You get to sample some coffee beans. Staff are friendly.
Thanks for sharing your experience with us. I’m glad to hear the tour hit the mark for a coffee lover like you. The plantation visit, the explanations about the different varieties, and the hands-on look at the production process are exactly what we want guests to enjoy. I’m also pleased the team made you feel welcome and that you liked the lunch and the coffee tasting.
It was a great tour. Coffee plantation, Grecia and Sarchi. Jorge was a friendly knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed our private tour of the plantation and even our young teen thought it was all very interesting. Lunch was delicious and lovely with Jorge joining us. He was very accommodating and very chatty in the long journey back and forth from San Jose. We had a great day with him and would highly recommend him and the tour.
Thank you for sharing this. We are glad the day felt worthwhile from start to finish — coffee plantation, Grecia and Sarchí make a nice mix of culture, scenery, and story. It is great to hear Jorge connected well with you and even kept your teen engaged — that says a lot about his style. Thanks again for the recommendation — means a lot.
First, I received an unsolicited payment link with an email about this trip. When I tried to view the booking for this trip the Tripadvisor link repeatedly showed an error message. So I contacted them by telephone and was told I was the only participant and they would not take just me. He told me I could cancel. I said yes, please cancel. I specifically asked if I would receive a refund and was told I would. Now they say they can’t document that and don’t seem to want to refund my money. I booked a tour with a different company at a higher last minute price. Based on my experience I would not recommend.
This was a great experience. The food was great, good music and the water was warm and salty and the crew were great.
Thanks for your feedback. We are happy to hear that you had a great time during your experience.
Wear comfortable shoes and long sleeves if you’re visiting Poas Valcano as it is highly recommended when you get there

Our trip was canceled with no real reason offered within 24 hours of when it was due to be offered. We received the email notice of cancellation when we were enroute to Costa Rica. We received a full refund; however, it caused significant last minute issues and we were not able to to book a coffee excursion as hoped.
Thank you very much for your feedback! We take note of your comments to improve in the future. We hope soon your return to Costa Rica and provide an excellent experience
Our tour guide Mr. Garry and the coffee bean education… fabulous!!! The coffee knowledge that was shared in both English and Spanish couldn’t be purchased at a university… only at Doka…❤️🇨🇦☕️

The coffee and village tour was well run and informative, Gary and Carlos both looked after us very well during the drive between the towns and getting in and out of the bus. It was very interesting to see the different attractions and we felt we had enough time to see and enjoy everything. The lunch was lovely and the family all enjoyed it (including the children aged 14, 12 and 10)
