Top Puntarenas Food & Drink Classes

Embark on a sightseeing tour around the seaside city of Puntarenas, Costa Rica. Visit a local farmers market and walk along the Tárcoles Bridge looking for crocodiles. Then explore Carara National Park, taking in the lush rainforest and stunning ocean views. Check off the region’s highlights in just five hours, with photo opportunities aplenty.

Experience a different side of the Monteverde Cloud Forest with this small-group tour through a local private farm. Walk through a private farm set within the region’s beautiful countryside to see how coffee, cocoa, and sugar are produced here. Besides seeing their plantations, you’ll have the chance to taste each of the local products. Trails on the farm are accessible for strollers, walkers, and wheelchairs. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included in Monteverde and Santa Elena.

This isn’t just a cooking class — it’s an authentic Costa Rican home experience. You’ll step into Elizabeth’s family kitchen, surrounded by the aromas of fresh local ingredients and the charm of a real Monteverde home. Unlike larger, tourist-focused classes, this is an intimate, hands-on experience where you not only learn recipes but also share stories, laughter, and a homemade meal around the table. Every dish is prepared the way locals have done for generations, making it a true taste of Costa Rican culture.
