Day 1: Poas Volcano, Doka Coffee Plantation and SarchÃ
1 Breakfast, 1 Lunch
Begin this Costa Rica tour with breakfast at a local café, followed by a trip to the Poas Volcano National Park. This national park is home to a variety of wildlife, including tapirs, coyotes, hummingbirds, and perhaps the wildest of them all, the Poas Volcano. One of four active volcanoes in Costa Rica, the Poas's steaming crater bubbles with life.
The afternoon continues with a tour of the Doka Coffee Plantation. Watch how coffee is picked, milled and ground, then sample the results! If you eyes are still a little heavy from an early morning, they are sure to perk up from the rich aroma and flavorful tastes of a hot cup of Costa Rican coffee. At this three-generation coffee plantation, discover first hand - or cup - what makes Costa Rican coffee so popular.
Finish your Costa Rica extension with a visit to the artisan town of Sarchí, known throughout Costa Rica for its beautiful and intricate arts and crafts and souvenirs. Sarchí is most known for the vibrant, beautifully painted oxcarts that have been made here for over a hundred years. Arrive back at the hotel around 5:00 pm - just in time to drop a postcard to friends and family back home!
This tour is approximately 11 hours.

This was our first trip to South America and we were a little nervous. But Adventure Life made things so easy! All our questions were answered before we left, and our guide, Vidal, was amazing! He gave us enough space to explore without rushing us along. He also knew where the best picture taking opportunities were, which was great.
Jess was terrific and patiently guided us to make what we feel will be a wonderful family adventure.

What made our Costa Rica experience great was the wonderful places we stayed and transportation to get to our different areas to visit was excellent! The white water rafting and the snorkeling & dolphin watching were really fun!
