? Full Description
Step into the peaceful countryside at Finca La Esperanza, a family farm that has been thriving for generations. The tour begins with a guided walk around the property, where you’ll explore coffee fields, sugar cane areas, farm animals, and the daily surroundings of rural Costa Rican life.
You’ll learn about the origins of coffee in Costa Rica and how this farm keeps traditional methods alive. Your guide will show you how to pick ripe coffee cherries, roast the beans over a wood fire, and grind them using traditional tools. The experience is completely hands-on, letting you feel like part of the family rather than just a visitor.
Along the walk, you may spot native wildlife — many travelers have been lucky enough to see sloths resting in the surrounding trees. The tour ends with a homemade snack prepared over an open flame, paired perfectly with the fresh coffee you just created. You’ll also receive a small bag of your own coffee to take home as a souvenir of this memorable experience.
