Wonderful Afternoon in Costa Rica!
We did the horseback riding + chocolate class combo. The forest for the horseback riding was so beautiful and peaceful. We loved stopping at the little waterfall to swim. The horses were well trained and the guides did a great job keeping an eye on everyone. The chocolate class with Mary and Heydi was fantastic!! We LOVED to see every step of the process and try the cocoa plant at each point. It was so informative and Mary made it really fun too. Would def come back to the adventure park and recommend to anyone coming to CR!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re happy to hear you enjoyed the peaceful horseback riding tour, the waterfall stop, and the Chocolate Experience. Your kind words for Mary, Heydi, and our guides mean a lot to us. We’re glad you had such a fun and informative visit, and we truly appreciate your recommendation. We hope to welcome you back soon!

Chocolate making great!!
I’m old so the horseback riding was not my fav but David was great and they helped me a lot but I felt sorry for the horses. It was too hot and they were panting. The waterfall and swimming was not worth getting in. But that chocolate experience made the whole thing worth it. Wow!! The smell and taste of the chocolate we made….. incredible. Mary and Heidi were great!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad to hear the chocolate experience was a highlight and that our team provided great support during your visit. Your comments are very important, and they will be reviewed internally to continue improving our experiences. We truly appreciate you sharing your thoughts and hope to welcome you again in the future.

Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Jaco.
How much does Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $99 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Jaco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Jaco is not rushed.
Is Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 20 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Jaco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience?
+
Around 7 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 Jaco 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 Jaco and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience 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 Jaco 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 Jaco?
+
On Outty we rank every Jaco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Arenal Volcano, La Fortuna Waterfall, Hot Springs Combo Tour with Lunch & Dinner, Jason Crocodile Tours, Jaco Beach Costa Rica Horseback Riding. 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 Jaco?
+
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 Jaco?
+
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 Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience?
+
Included: Snacks; Bottled water; Chocolate Tasting; Safety Equipment; and Waterfalls. Not included: Photos; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience?
+
The Vista Los Suenos Adventure Park is located 6km north of Jaco Beach, at the Los Suenos intersection, 1.5km east Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Jungle Horseback Riding + Chocolate Experience 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.
