What a great day! Sloths, frogs, snakes and more
I did this tour today and loved all of it. The pickup was well organized and on time. I had no trouble reaching out and receiving prompt replies. Jose and Gustavo made for an excellent t duo - tour guide and driver. The waterfall was nice - we swam and took that in for about half an hour. Then we went to a small rainforest trail where we saw sloths, snakes, frogs and bugs. Kevin - the young guide there really knew his stuff and was a pleasure to be with. He knew all the little spots to look and you can tell he is passionate about the forest and its creatures. From there we visited a coffee and cacao plantation and learned about the various processes of each, sampled and enjoyed. A small family-run business with excellent knowledge and roots that go way back - it was so nice. Not tacky or touristy in any negative way just very pleasant. (10/10). We enjoyed a delicious local late lunch of typical (and exceptional) beans, rice etc CR fare before heading back down to Coco area. What a great day. Highly recommend.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a wonderful review! 🌿😊 We are thrilled to hear that you enjoyed every part of your experience with us. We’re especially happy to know that José and Gustavo made your day special, and that Kevin’s knowledge and passion for the rainforest added so much to the wildlife experience. It’s wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the waterfall, the coffee and cacao experience, and the delicious Costa Rican lunch as well. Your kind words about our organization and communication mean a lot to our entire team. Thank you for recommending us and for choosing Pure Nature to be part of your Costa Rican adventure. We hope to welcome you back again in the future! 🇨🇷💚

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Liberia.
How much does Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience cost?
+
Prices start at $160 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Liberia usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 Liberia is not rushed.
Is Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 91 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 976 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Liberia, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.
Can I cancel or reschedule Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall 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 Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience?
+
Around 342 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 Liberia 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 Liberia and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall 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 Liberia 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 Liberia?
+
On Outty we rank every Liberia experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Frogs-Sloths-waterfall-Coffee and Chocolate Tour, Costa Rica Guanacaste Airport ( LIR )Private Arrival Transfer, Whitewater Rafting Class III and IV. 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 Liberia?
+
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 Liberia?
+
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 Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience?
+
Included: Bottled water; Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Certified Guide. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 170 listed pickup locations in and around Liberia. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall 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.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Sloth Watching, Coffee, Chocolate & Waterfall Experience?
+
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.
