"Thank you for this great discovery. Family farm, visit without tour group! I was looking for an authentic farm and I wanted to make the cocoa myself 😊 it's done! At the end of the session, we were also able to taste the products of the farm: plantain banana, cheese, coffee… Just what we needed. Thank you so much! 😊"

"This diversified, organic family farm is the real deal--not something cooked up for tourists (though the family really appreciates having tourists come for tours). Much fun! Especially fun to see the basics of these processes. I highly recommend this tour over the more commercialized versions offered elsewhere."

"Absolutely the best experience we had in Costa Rica. Stumbled into this place while looking for a coffee shop nearby and didn’t realize it’s a coffee farm for tours. They offered us fresh brewed coffee and hand made tortillas, even showed my kids their farm animals! Sweetest owners ever! Definitely recommend their tours if you’re in the area!"
