Overview

If it wasn't for coffee, perhaps there wouldn't be a San Jose city today. On this tour we'll share with you the history of coffee in our town, where was the first coffee plantation, the impact of the grain in our country after the independence, and how the exports helped bring progress to the Central Valley.
We'll talk about the different coffee production areas in Costa Rica, as we sample coffee in different infusion methods. Do you know what's the difference between a chemex and a V60, or what's a Vandola?
You'll also meet the local baristas, that are trying to change the way costaricans enjoy this delicious and energetic drink.
Small groups (10 people max.) ensure personalized attention.

Last but not least, we're a local company who believes that we can improve our city through sustainable tourism. We're the first tourism company to specialize on promoting the history and heritage of San Jose, and help other local entrepreneurs while creating unforgettable experiences.
