We had an excellent tour with our guide Nelson who was very knowledgable and told us a lot about the history and discovery of what is chocolate today. I can totally recommend this tour and particularly Nelson. We had a lot of fun, great chocolate tasting and good memories to take home.

I really enjoyed this tour. We were a small group of 7 people. First the guide explained us the different cacao plants and the process, then we proceeded to tasting the raw flavor as well as the melted chocolate incl different spices. We also made our own pralines and hat a chocolate water in the end!

Not many things hold my teenagers attention, but the tour at Eden Chocolate was a surprising exception. Our tour guide, Porfirio, engaged my teens in every step of the chocolate making process from letting them cut open and taste the fruit to grinding up cocoa pods to make Teobroma. The best part was making their own chocolate bonbons to take home. Both teens said that this tour was their favorite activity of the day.

Great tour for kids and adults alike!

We looked at several tours of coffee and/or chocolate farms around La Fortuna and I’m so happy we chose Eden Chocolate Farm. They are a small organic chocolate farm and the tour was great. Nelson was our guide and he was very informative, answering all of the adult questions while still keeping the kids engaged and learning. He did our tour in Spanish, but also spoke English. The tour was super interactive for kids, they got to taste everything from the raw seeds to the finished chocolate. They got to ride the bike that grinds the beans, try grinding by hand like the Olmec and made their own chocolates, adding different spices and toppings and sampling each. We learned about the history of the fruit and got to make and try an indigenous chocolate drink. All in all it was a great tour, the grounds are beautiful with a nice restaurant overlooking a river. The lunch was also very good, served by a very courteous staff! We all loved it!

Kayla_S, Mar 2026
Nelson was so much fun and truly made the tour extra special! The experience included a short walk around the plantation where we learned about the different varieties of cocoa and how they are processed into chocolate. We were able to taste different chocolates, make our own bonbons, and even help prepare a special chocolate drink as a group. We learned a lot and had a great time. There was even singing and dancing during the chocolate-making process, which made it even more memorable. Highly recommend!

An Unforgettable Chocolate Experience in Costa Rica

Camillo_L, Jan 2026
The chocolate tour in Costa Rica was an amazing experience! We learned so much about cacao, from cultivation to the chocolate making process, all explained in a very engaging and easy to understand way. Our guide Yari was absolutely fantastic incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about what she does. You could really feel her enthusiasm throughout the tour. The chocolate tasting was, of course, a highlight! A truly authentic, educational, and delicious experience that we highly recommend.
