Raphael was an excellent...

Raphael was an excellent tour guide. We learned so much about coffee, chocolate & Costa Rica. Plus, it was fun to make our own chocolate bars!
Great tour!!

Amazing!!!

Our tour guide was amazing. He was so informative and insightful. We were even able to make our own chocolate bars from scratch & taste fresh coffee.
Fun and informative experience

It was very cool to learn the history of chocolate and coffee. It was even more cool to see how both are made. Walking away with our own handmade chocolate was amazing, though I much prefer eating the chocolate from the gift shop. Yen was an awesome tour guide!
Fun Day with Friends

Yen was so knowledgeable and we made our own chocolate! The coffee was amazing! Guess what bug is the only bug to pollinate cocoa plant!

Wonderful Experience!

This was a fantastic experience for our whole family! We combined the coffee and chocolate tour, and our guide, Rafael, was awesome! He was incredibly knowledgeable and taught us so much about Costa Rican culture and history through the tour. We were able to see the roasting and traditional brewing process of the fine Arabica beans and we were able to make our own chocolate bars at the end. I would recommend this tour for anyone who likes coffee, chocolate, or Costa Rican culture! Gracias! Pura Vida!!
Great dive into chocolate and coffee production

The tour is very well organized, very interactive hand-on experience. It would be equally interesting to do for adults and kids: you pass through all the stages of collecting, preparation and final output of coffee and chocolate. You try to perform yourselves all the processes and make your own chocolate bar. In the end you have a tasting in the gift shop.
Amazing
Elaine_Y, Dec 2022
Our guide made this tour incredible and hard to beat. He was very informative and super patient with my grandkids and let them try everything if they wanted to, but always their parents if it was okay first.
Fun and informative
Amy_M, Dec 2022
Enthusiastic and informative guide. He not only was knowledgeable about coffee and chocolate production, but also pointed out various wildlife along the way (toucans and a sloth!).
Great tour- worth the time and money!

This is great way to learn about coffee & chocolates. The best part is the tasting portion. The quality of the coffee and chocolate beans are outstanding. I ended up purchasing a lot of their dark chocolate and coffee products! Alex (Axel) did a great job going through the whole process.
Great with kids
Sophia_J, Mar 2022
Highly recommend this activity, especially great for kids. Our tour guide was fantastic and really did a great job including the kids (5 and under) in the tour and keeping them engaged. Don Juan facilities were fun to see and experience, and we enjoyed learning about how they grow and process the coffee and chocolate. We especially enjoyed making chocolate and tasting all the coffee and chocolate varieties. They have a very nice fire shop where we purchased a lot of coffee, chocolate and souvenirs.
Wonderful experience for coffee and chocolate!

Fun, informative, and tasty! As much about chocolate as coffee, which was unexpected but delicious! Don't skip the unlimited coffee tasting in the gift shop :)
