Coffee & Chocolate Tour La Fortuna — Attraction in La Fortuna

We did a morning tour with Coffee & Chocolate Tour La Fortuna; it took about 2.5 hours and was wonderful ! Our guide was very knowledgeable and took us around the demo areas of coffee, cacao and sugarcane plants and how the beans / canes are processed.

The demo areas have plants of a few different sizes bearing the coffee beans or the cacao fruits and we saw examples of harvesting stages, different stages of fermentation or roasting and grinding, and lastly got samples to taste. The coffee tour was very informative about I roasted, light, medium or dark roasted beans, how their aromas and caffeine contents vary and ended with the guide brewing a pot of coffee using a local drip set up. In the chocolate tour we got to taste some pre made chocolates and also made some ourselves by mixing ingredients like processed cacao powder, sugar, milk, additions like peanut butter etc. Lastly, during the sugarcane tour, he showed us how sugarcane stems are pressed to extract juice.

Overall it was a very informative and engaging tour, and worth the time. We even saw a sloth hanging out in one of the tall...

My husband and I did the Coffee and Chocolate Tour with Joseph, followed by the Sloth Tour with Isaac in Aug. 2023! I can't say enough great things about our experience!!! The coffee/chocolate tour was educational and very interactive which was the best part of taking the tour with Joseph. We were able to partake in cooking the coffee beans and grinding them using a couple different methods. Joseph knows how to keep people interested, engaged and constantly laughing! Plus, he makes an amazing coffee "flight" and later, a delicious chocolate treat! For the Sloth Tour, Isaac led us around the jungle and could spot various sloths within a couple minutes. I was amazed by his wealth of knowledge for not only sloths but snakes, lizards, frogs, birds, etc. He was a great tour guide and very patient with our group's constant questions. We were so fortunate to have Joseph and Isaac as our tour guides, I hope to come back some day soon! I would recommend these tours to everyone, even kids will have a great time! It's a relaxing and fun experience you...

Great informative tour which I would recommend to everyone, even more so if you are a chocolate lover. We booked online and the tour started on time. Step in and the busy road landscape changes to a full cultivation of trees and mixture of coffee, cocoa and cane plantation.

Our tour guide Sebastian was the best and humble person with a ton load of information about the 3 items - Coffee, Cocoa and Cane. The set up was modest but Sebastian made it rustic and authentic. We had a blast of time and our favourite part of the tour was eating cocoa seeds raw and then making our own sugarcane juice. Great way to wind down your...
