A truly unforgettable experience
An incredible experience from start to finish. We got lucky with the weather given that we were there during the rainy season in September (we only had 1 day of rain in the whole week).
AND we were the only two people on this tour with our Guide José Gonzalez so we had lots of time to ask questions and learn about all the beautiful surroundings.
The tour started off in the gardens where we learnt about all the plants, herbs, fruits and flowers and how they all play a role in the delicate ecosystem of the rainforest.
Jose was a mindful of information about everything and we also chatted about lots of other things Costa Rican too!
The juicing of the sugar cane was a ton of fun and we got to drink it right away too.
Not to mention the grinding of the cocoa beans into a paste and making our own hot chocolate. This was truly magical. We finished off the tour with a tasty lunch and some really delicious coffee in a space surrounded by birdsong, sunshine + the sounds of frogs in the tropical rainforest.
Heaven.

Dear Laela,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your beautiful experience with us! We’re thrilled to hear that your visit to Arenal Vida Campesina—and especially the Combo Cultural tour—was such a memorable one.
It sounds like you had a perfect day, and we’re so glad the weather cooperated during your stay! Having a private tour with José must have made it even more special. He’ll be delighted to hear how much you appreciated his knowledge, enthusiasm, and the time spent exploring the gardens and the traditions behind coffee, chocolate, and sugar cane.
We’re happy to know you enjoyed every part of the tour—from the hands-on experiences to the peaceful setting of our farm during lunch.
Thank you again for visiting and for your kind words. We hope to welcome you back someday!
Pura Vida!!

Great tour guide! Interesting tour and grounds.
Dylan was our tour guide. Very knowledgeable of the plants and animals as we walked around the grounds. We took the tour on the very last day of August during the rainy season so it was just us. He kept it informational, yet intimate and let us ask many questions. At the end he sat down with us for a snack and coffee, which allowed more conversation about the property etc. He had very good English!
Operator response

It's wonderful to know that the rainy season gave you a more intimate experience, and that you felt comfortable asking questions and connecting with him throughout the tour.
We're especially glad you appreciated the coffee and snack moment—those quiet conversations are often the most meaningful, and they truly reflect the heart of what we aim to offer at Arenal Vida Campesina.
We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Dylan. Thank you again for visiting us, and we hope to welcome you back in the future!

Mega coole Tour :-)
José is a competent and friendly guide, it all seemed super authentic. All questions were answered in detail. He has tailored the tour very individually to us and is there with all his heart. There were very delicious tastings in between and at the end. We were involved again and again, were allowed to touch coffee beans and various herbs and plants and smell them and also help, e.g. squeezing sugarcane juice or peeled cocoa beans. Overall, an all-round successful afternoon. Thank you thank you!! 😀
