Great tour with a delicious meal to end the night. - This tour was so much fun and we got a lot for our money. Our guide was darling with a great sense of humor. The path for the night tour was smooth and easy to walk, plus we were given flashlights that were strong enough to see any creatures visiting that night. The night finished with a delicious dinner where we got to meet the Queen of the family. I highly recommend this tour.

Underrated gem - Very interesting-great to learn about the plants. Juan was very good and answered all our questions. Lunch was a big spread and very tasty. The sugar cane drinks were great.

5 Star ***** farm tour with Dylan - If you’re visiting Costa Rica and looking for something real, meaningful, and unforgettable — this is it. Our organic farm tour with Dylan was an absolute highlight of our trip. From the start, it was clear how much Dylan loves the land and cares about sharing Costa Rican culture. He walked us through the farm, introducing us to all kinds of native fruits, vegetables, and herbs — many we’d never seen or heard of before. He explained everything with so much knowledge and patience, and you could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does. The whole tour was hands-on and super fun — we tasted fresh sugarcane, made tortillas from scratch (which was surprisingly satisfying), and ended with the most delicious home-cooked lunch. It wasn’t just tasty — it felt like something made with heart. One of the moments that really stuck with us: we mentioned we weren’t in the mood for coffee mid-day, so Dylan brought us fresh lemongrass tea instead. That little gesture just showed how thoughtful and attentive he is. Dylan isn’t just a great guide — he’s a genuinely kind person who clearly cares about creating a great experience. This tour felt more like spending time with a friend who’s passionate about their home than a typical tourist activity. Can’t recommend it enough.

A Must for Your Costa Rica Vacation! - The guide was knowledgeable, friendly and thorough. We were running late and the guide waited for us and gave us the full tour. We left with a good understanding of the most common plants in Costa Rica. We loved making our own tortilla for our wonderful typical Costa Rica lunch which was delicious. Definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting this unique and beautiful country.
