About this experience

In just one day, you’ll experience three of Costa Rica’s most unique highlights: the force of an active volcano, the richness of rainforest wildlife, and the story behind one of the world’s most famous coffees. At Poás Volcano, you’ll stand at the edge of one of the world’s largest active craters, a rare opportunity to see geology in action. La Paz Waterfall Gardens then surrounds you with nature at its best—towering waterfalls, exotic wildlife, and vibrant gardens that reveal the country’s biodiversity in one place. Finally, Hacienda Alsacia offers an inside look at Starbucks’ only coffee farm, where sustainable practices meet the tradition of Costa Rican coffee, ending with a cup enjoyed against sweeping mountain views.
