In my experiences, people will be able to live and know from the perspective of a local person with indigenous descent. many traditions that are very important to the culture such as medicinal plants, knowing the ceremony house, crafts, cocoa chocolate making and history. and also very important to share with local people and take home a beautiful memory of everything experienced in the place. and then after this beautiful cultural experience. We visited a waterfall in the area where you can swim and enjoy nature. It is an experience that will allow you to connect with the indigenous Bribri culture of the area and appreciate the nature of its surroundings, which very few people managed to visit and learn about the beauty of this culture. And something also very important is that even the little ones who live this experience will learn about one of the best-known cultures in Costa Rica.
