About this activity
With the view of the majestic Arenal Volcano in La Fortuna of San Carlos, enjoy the sweetest rainforest experience, discovering the ancient secrets of chocolate: from its discovery and use in tropical America to the processing of the product as we know it and enjoy today.
In this 2-hour “hands on” program, you will have the opportunity to learn interesting aspects of cocoa and chocolate from its origins and history, participate in all the production process from the harvesting of the fruit to the drying and grinding of the seed, the developing of the traditional drink of our ancestors, and of course, enjoying a high-quality organic chocolate sampling.
Once we get the energy from the chocolate we’ll drive to La Fortuna Waterfall Reserve where over 4 000 ml precipitation a year allows to enjoy this majestic 210 feet high fall; a five hundred meters downhill hike will give you the chance to see it from the very bottom where a “natural pool” awaits if you want to swim in its fresh and crystalline water.
IMPORTANT HIGHLIGHTS:
• Know how chocolate is manufactured
• Hike through the lush jungle
• Visit La Fortuna Waterfall
• Enjoy taking a dip in it
