What you can expect

Dive into Costa Rican culture with a guided tour of Diamante Eco Adventure Park’s traditional house and botanical garden. Get a hands-on experience with chocolate making, coffee brewing, and sugarcane juice extraction, while learning about the medicinal herbs and flowering plants around you.
Take a walk on the garden’s shaded pathways, leading to a typical Costa Rican farmhouse or Casita. Get historical and cultural insight into the lives of rural Costa Ricans at this house that replicates the true design, style, and materials used by the average farmer for almost 100 years.
Then, amidst the lush green surroundings of the botanical garden, get introduced to a variety of native flora and fauna. Learn about the origin and history of cacao, along with the production process — from drying, roasting, and grinding the seeds to creating a chocolate mixture.

Next, it's time to understand the social, economic, and political impact of coffee in Costa Rica. Take a close look at the park's organic coffee plants, unique to the province of Guanacaste. Then, see the traditional way to brew coffee using a chorreador (filter coffee brewer).

Continue on the walking trails in the botanical gardens to see an organic sugarcane crop. Learn all about sugarcane agriculture in Costa Rica from your guide. Finally, roll up your sleeves and use a sugarcane press to make your very own Agua Dulce (sweet water).
