This isn't just another Poás Volcano tour. It's a private experience, built for slow travel, not mass tourism. We pick you up when it works for you, straight from your hotel or Airbnb, none of the two hours the big buses waste rounding tourists up across other locations. At Poás, timing is everything: those who arrive after mid-morning usually find the crater buried in clouds. So we go first, while you still have a real shot at seeing it clear. We stand at the edge of one of the largest active craters on the planet, no rush, then find the hidden Laguna Botos, its waters shifting between emerald and turquoise. Next, the iconic La Paz Waterfall, fresh local fruit, and a hidden trail most people walk right past. We close the day at Hacienda Alsacia, the only Starbucks coffee farm in the world, where you taste a cup where it's actually grown. Your companion doesn't just know this land, he lives it. You won't remember a tour. You'll remember a Costa Rica experience, told first-hand.

We will visit the sanctuary of the white-faced capuchin monkeys, the most intelligent species of monkeys in the new world. Our visit will be safe and informative for everyone, from children to adults. We’ll learn about their family organization, alphas, and betas, and how to calculate their age. During these tours people are not allowed to touch the animals, but animals if they feel comfortable allowed to touch people. They are still wild animals and we are not violating their habitat. We don't allowed to feed them as well We’ll then see the crocodiles of Rio Grande de Tarcoles and enjoy the local souvenir sale and a buffet-style restaurant. We can choose to admire the crocodiles from the bridge or take a boat tour for an extra $43. The boat tour lasts approximately 1:40 minutes and includes bird watching and a naturalist guide. We’ll then go to a hidden beach in Jaco to see the sloths. We’ll sit on chairs, have a table, and I’ll serve drinks and snacks.
