It was very informative!... - It was very informative! We saw coffee and cacao plants, got to know the origin and difference of species of coffee and cacao processes. The best part of the tour was the tasting and smelling of everything :) we got to grind coffee and also drank hot cacao from our ground cacao beans. The host was very friendly and answered my every question. Afrer the tour we got to eat local dish for lunch. Now when buying coffee or cacao we are more conscious. Thank you very much!

Rosbin taught us so much... - Rosbin taught us so much during our time with him from the history of cacao beans to the “Banana Split” diet of his cows. He was so incredibly knowledgeable about the coffee and chocolate industry and was able to answer every question we threw at him. Education combined with tasty samples and a wonderful meal makes for a day well spent. I highly recommend this to anyone in the Playas Del Coco area.

From Bean to Bar, and Everything Between - This is an educational experience. We sat in a room surrounded by exhibits samples, and all the equipment for converting beans to coffee and chocolate. You will get to touch and taste at each step in the process. In the photos, you’ll see pictures of us roasting chocolate on a traditional plate, husking the beans, grinding to make the chocolate paste, and the hot chocolate we got to taste. There is so much more, but I don’t want to give it away :-) We wrapped up with a traditional breakfast at the Simbiosis Bistro. Most of the time we were in the air conditioned room, or on the porch under the giant almond tree, making it comfortable on a hot day. It would also be well suited to a rainy day. Kids ight get bored.

Excellent Experience - This was an extremely interesting experience. The presentation was very informative, the tasting of the coffee & chocolate was fantastic. We had a party of eight at the 11:30 time slot and they served us a traditional Costa Rican lunch.. I would suggest booking directly with Simbiosos Cafe to insure proper booking. Excellent value and true Costa Rican hospitality.

You don’t actually go... - You don’t actually go anywhere. It all takes place behind the Bistro. Food was yummy. We learned a lot. Recommend for adults and those who have limited mobility.
