Reviews: Hacienda Café Doka, Volcán Poas & Jardines de La Catarata La Paz
Guest User2024-06-27
Recommendations for activity: - Good shoes (lots of walking) - Small backpack I went to Costa Rica with my father and decided to do this activity. This activity is an all day affair, and covers a multitude of things. We learned about coffee at the Doka Estates— drank lots of coffee in the process. We then went to the Volcano. Keep in mind you might have to hang around for an hour to see the crater (we went during the rainy season). It was hard to get a visible view of the crater. We were able to get a good view for 30 seconds and that’s it. Later we checked out the waterfalls, which I must say was gorgeous! The lunch was included— it was a buffet style lunch. I would recommend doing this tour if you want to complete several activity’s in one day. My only gripe was the tour guide was a little overwhelming. He constantly checked in on us like we were kids, other than that, the tour was good.

We were in San Jose for a conference and had one free day to see some of Costa Rica and have some fun. This was the perfect tour. It was a full day and all three locations were beautiful, interesting, and diverse. Olman, our tour guide was knowledgeable and gave us plenty of time at each location. He was my favorite tour guide I've ever had. I could not recommend this tour more highly if you are looking for a way to see the beauty of Costa Rica around San Jose in one day.
Reviews: Poas Volcano waterfalls and coffee tour from from San Jose

The trip was amazing - very well organized. Charly the driver - was excellent - avoided every traffic jam - and was very good in explaining - both in English and in Spanish. Event though - it was raining period in Costa Rica- it did not matter - because the outdoors (Vulcano and waterfalls) had been put early in the morning, when it was still dry. Afternoon we visited a Coffee farm with food, Coffee and a guided tour through coffee processing- excellent and very interesting. All in all - 5 stars and - highly recommend. Cheers Michel

Very interesting, excellent guide… Lots of information. I felt safe. I more or less liked the restaurants.
