Great Chocolate & Coffee Experience

Nisha_K, Mar 2026
I did the chocolate and coffee tasting tour with Northfields in La Fortuna, and it was a really enjoyable experience. The group size was just right – not too big, which made it feel more personal. The guide was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly, which made the tour both interesting and engaging. I really liked being able to taste chocolate at different cacao levels and try freshly ground coffee. It was also great to see the cacao seeds and learn more about the process from start to finish. Overall, a great experience and something I would definitely recommend if you’re visiting Costa Rica.

Wonderful learning experience!

Awesome experience and education

Pravin_S, Mar 2026
Awesome experience overall. The guide was himself an ex farm worker so he knew all the details very well. We tasted multiple chocolates from 100% coco to 60/40 coco/milk/sugar and many variations between. Same with Coffee. Multiple samples of coffee as well. We also saw and sampled Sugarcane juice and rum. The gift shop was nice. I would highly recommend Northfield for the great education and experience for Coffee and Chocolate tour.

An afternoon in La Fortuna

Becky_S, Feb 2026
This is more than just a coffee and chocolate tour. We learned so much about the economy, the impact on families, school systems, etc. We learned more than we expected - all in a good way. Our guide was David. He was amazing as he expressed his passion for the coffee and chocolate processes along with the love for this beautiful country.

Entertaining and tasty coffe and chocolate tour

Coffee and chocolate tour.

Mark_C, Feb 2026
Very interesting and informative. Generous with samples of both coffee and chocolate. Our guide incorporated humour with excellent knowledge.

This was a great tour....

Donald_B, Feb 2026
This was a great tour. It’s not strenuous physically. The guide was very knowledgeable and personable. We sampled amazing coffee and saw some traditional ways to brew it and roast it. Amazing chocolate sampled as well and they have the caco growing there which is very interesting. We also tried cane juice and the “moonshine” you make from it. Overall we really enjoyed this tour it was informative and Cesar was a pleasure. Spike the dog was also a welcome addition to the tour to alíviate a bit of the guilt of leaving our puppy at home.

Jonathan was excellent—thorough, friendly, knowledgeable with a great sense of humor. I’d recommend this tour to anyone.

Caroline_J, Feb 2026
This tour included explanations and demonstrations of the processes of growing, harvesting, and processing both chocolate and coffee. It includes a walk through the plantations and tastings of the coffee and chocolate during different stages of the process.

This is a great tour for the hold family. Very fun and informative. You can eat and drink as much as you want. Learned a lot about the history of both industries and the culture.

Don’t waste your time!!!

Karen_G, Jan 2026
I actually walked out of the tour after about 1/2 hour. I don’t need to spend my vacation listening to some super boring guy drone on about water temperature and calcium in the water. I would give the tour a 0 if that was an option

Amazing tour

Brasilia_E, Jan 2026
Valerie was our guide and she was incredible. Very fun and informative. Property is beautiful and coffee and chocolate are delicious. We even saw wild turkeys and toucans during our tour.

Incredible experience, worth it!

Christina_L, Jan 2026
We have taken a chocolate tour in st. Lucia before which was fun, but this tour was so unique, interactive and fun! It combines chocolate, coffee and sugarcane into one tour! Loved every minute of it and to be able to taste everything was so great!

Worth every cent

Miriam_H, Jan 2026
At first I was sceptical if the tour can be worth the price. It definitely is! You get to see the entire process (modern and manual) of coffee and chocolate, and also get to make sugar cane juice. Valerie was great at explaining everything, very patient with the numerous questions, and even pointed out animals and birds that “dropped in” during the tour.

Fun tour with great...

This was a surprisingly good coffee tour, its long, informative, you get to try a lot of different things a thoroughly understand the coffee making process. It felt pretty authentic and they give you the opportunity to buy different types of coffee at the end. We had a very fun time and are glad we booked this tour
