    We purchased the 3-in-1...

    We purchased the 3-in-1 experience. The Coffee & Chocolate experience followed by the night tour. Overall it was an OK experience. If you are a coffee lover and interested in the history and making of it, then this tour is a must do. Our guide was friendly and very knowledgable about the history, cultivation, harvesting & roasting. The tour covers the entire coffee journey. We also get to taste coffee beans in different stages and eventually also get to see the process of making a Dark Chocolate. We also get to taste some delicious pre-made white and dark chocolate bars for tasting. The tour then moves to a guided nocturnal tour. The guide helped some with umbrellas for rain and shoes in case they were not appropriate for the hike. The tour mostly is within their coffee estate and seems like a controlled environment. We did see few variety of wild life like Armadillos, scorpions, lizards, porcupine & tarantula. If you are someone who does not have a lot of time then this 3-in-1 tour should be sufficient. However if you really want to experience the Nocturnal tours, then this definitely is not worth it and you are better off doing the tours which are advertised specifically for nocturnal wild life tours. The night tour lasted about an hour and ended in a Souvenirs shop which has different types of coffee beans and ground coffee to taste and purchase. They range from small packets to large. Overall for a coffee lover this tour is worth while. If you are excited to experience the Nocturnal animals, then you are better off doing a separate Nocturnal tour.

    Informative, educational & fun!

    Our tour guide José was extremely knowledgeable. The tour took us through all of the stages of chocolate making, coffee production and sugar cane. It was hands on throughout and José also pointed out wildlife to us. We tried cacoa at its various stages and tried a drink. Next we help press sugar cane and all tried the juice which was amazing! They should really bottle and sell it. Finally we learned all about coffee. Right from the soil to the cup. José told us all about the history of Costa Rica and production. He had a wonderful sense of humour and engaged every person on the tour. There wasn’t too much walking to do and it was very manageable.

    Nice tours and night walk

    Nice little tour, learnt a bit about chocolate and coffee production. The night tour was a bit tame until we saw two fighting Kinkajous. One fell out of a tree and the other one pooped on my wife!! Highlight of the evening!! Our guide was great and the coffee was good. We bought chocolate to bring home and it didn't last the evening - yummy!

    This was a very fun...

    This was a very fun excursion. The guide was absolutely incredible (and spoke multiple languages) - the chocolate and coffee processes were fascinating and tasty! On the trek through the jungle he found tarantulas and so many other frogs and insects👍

    Great experience

    We had Jorge as our guide and he was wonderful. Very thorough. The tour was really well organized - informative and hands on. Jorge also took photos on our night walk with his camera and is emailing them to us.

    Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $71 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Monteverde usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 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 Monteverde is not rushed.

    Is Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 67 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Monteverde, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour?

    +

    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 Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour?

    +

    Around 23 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 Monteverde 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 Monteverde and add a light layer if any part of the 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour 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 Monteverde 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 Monteverde?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Monteverde experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Original Canopy Tour Monteverde, Zipline, Monteverde Cloud Forest Guided Tour with Expert Naturalist, Coffee, Chocolate & Sugar Cane Tour (Regular). 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 Monteverde?

    +

    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 Monteverde?

    +

    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 Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour?

    +

    Included: Flashlight; Certified Guide; and Tea and coffee. Not included: Transportation Service. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Monteverde Coffee, Chocolate and Night Tour?

    +
