Highlights
- Doka Estate Costa Rica Coffee Tour & Plantation - Immerse yourself in the world of coffee! This experience will show you everything you need to know about the history, culture, production methods, and processing of coffee. In addition to being a national symbol of Costa Rica, it is the most famous beverage. The journey begins at the nursery, where experts will discuss the varieties and cultivation habits, as well as the local history and geography of coffee production. Continue your visit to the processing plant, declared a World Heritage Architectural Site in 2003. Here, you can observe the pulping and fermentation process of the beans, preparing them to be peeled and then exported or roasted in the country. Finally, visit the roaster and learn about the various roasts offered before ending at the gift shop with a coffee and chocolate tasting. In this fabulous place, we will enjoy a delicious classic Costa Rican breakfast. This location is just a 45-minute journey from San Jose - Poas Volcano National Park - The second destination to visit is the majestic Poás Volcano. A guided and easily accessible walk will take you to the viewpoint of the active crater, where you can admire fumaroles, the crater lagoon, ancient lava flows, and contrasting vegetation. You will walk only 400 meters on a trail accessible to all visitors. The travel time from Doka will be one hour, passing through strawberry plantations and ornamental plants that make the landscape a charming and captivating place. - La Paz Waterfall Gardens - A gem in the rainforest! At La Paz Waterfall Gardens, your experience consists of three parts over 3 hours: first, a visit to the wildlife refuge where you can get up close to animals such as toucans, sloths, birds, butterflies, and iconic Costa Rican felines and reptiles. Next, you can enjoy a buffet lunch featuring characteristic Costa Rican cuisine. Finally, you will immerse yourself in the tropical rainforest to admire the beauty of four waterfalls. A magical place that captivates all visitors. The journey to this location will take approximately 45 minutes from Poás Volcano, and along the way, you’ll see cattle farms and a magical intersection between two volcanoes: Barva and Poás, making the journey a captivating panorama. Once the experience is complete, we will travel to San Jose, and the journey will take approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes

Great tour and nice guide! - This was a great tour. Our guide arrived to pick us up exactly at the time scheduled. He was very nice and knowledgeable. He answered all our questions and helped to take a lot of nice photos. He took a good care of us all the way. The car was comfortable and clean.
Just keep in mind during stops in a local souvenir shops that you cannot take on board more than 100 ml of liquids in the cabin no matter what they say to you in the shop. The security at the airport has seized and put to trash the bottle of very nice liquor we bough during the tour and were told it was fine to take in the cabin.
Other than that disappointing incident everything else was great. Highly recommended!

Unforgettable the Poas crater - Excellent tour and surprising the crater of the Poas volcano. Also, the entire tour was very pleasant and interesting. It is well worth the complete tour.

Combo Tour - Very good tour. Guide (Hil) was excellent.
Tour is a great excursion if you have a free day in San Jose and want to get out of the city to see the sites. The volcano Visit was the beat we did during our time in CR. The Wildlife rescue/sanctuary was a little too zoo-like but provided the beat opportunity to see most of the animals native to CR. The waterfall tour was really great.
