Begin your day with a rich taste of Costa Rican culture and nature. On this tour, you’ll visit a traditional coffee farm and enjoy a freshly brewed cup while taking in mountain views. Then you’ll walk through lush forest to the majestic La Paz Waterfall. Finally, you’ll reach the rim of Poás Volcano and look down into its stunning crater lake filled with volcanic energy.

Your trip starts with a warm welcome at a working coffee farm perched in the mountains. Here, you’ll learn how Costa Rican coffee is cultivated, harvested, and roasted — and of course, sample the final product amid panoramic views and friendly hospitality.

Then, on to Poás Volcano National Park. You’ll walk to a viewpoint on the crater rim, where you can gaze into a vast, steaming crater lake that shimmers with an acidic turquoise hue. The experience feels otherworldly, combining raw geological power with serene landscapes.
