We offer more than just chocolate, Firstly, the chocolate tour begins with the cultural and biological background of cacao in Costa Rica. It further introduces into the collecting, fermenting, grinding and finally the making of chocolate, the drink of the gods. Secondly, we talk about coffee and its importance for Costa Rica's economic and cultural development. We have a showroom with important coffee picking instruments and a better explanation of the process of coffee production. We want to show you how to make Café-Chorreado. Amongst other sampling methods. Finally, we want to look at one of the most important aspects of Costarican culture and tradition, the trapiche. Here we grind sugar cane to extract the juice and make all kinds of local and delicious candy. This is for sure the sweetest tour in the area. We have recently added a MEDICINAL PLANTS GARDEN TO OUR EXPERIENCE

    Chocolate & Coffee

    This tour was such a gem! Sergio, our guide was very knowledgeable but he was also engaging and entertaining. We got to make some chocolate concoctions, drink some coffe and gain some great. Knowledgeable of both the history and process for both. The walk through the plantation and the information that came from that was super interesting and beautiful. We normally only chose to do the active tours and we took this tour as a recommendation and would absolutely do it again!

    Response from the operator: Muchas gracias. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed the experience and that Sergio made your visit both informative and entertaining. Pura Vida!!

    Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Quepos.

    How much does Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch cost?

    +

    Prices start at $59 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Quepos usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch take?

    +

    Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Quepos is not rushed.

    Is Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 82 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1,162 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Quepos, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch?

    +

    Around 407 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Quepos can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Quepos and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Quepos within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Quepos?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Quepos experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Full Day Waterfall Adventure, Manuel Antonio Canopy Tour - Longest Twin Zip Line in Central America, Manuel Antonio Park Tour and its Amazing Wildlife and Beaches. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Quepos?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Quepos?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch?

    +

    Included: Coffee Sampling; Water; In-vehicle air conditioning; Tea and coffee; and Bilingual Guide. Not included: Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 75 listed pickup locations in and around Quepos. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants and small children can ride in a pram or stroller; and Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Chocolate Tour Standard #1: Transportation included without lunch if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
