About this activity


Explore real rainforest and Río Celeste: a demanding hike, guaranteed sloth sightings, and a cacao and coffee experience (coffee available for purchase).


What to do

Experience a full day in Costa Rica’s real rainforest, where hiking, iconic scenery, and wildlife encounters come together in one unforgettable adventure. This tour is made for travelers who want the authentic feel of nature: jungle trails, the magic of Río Celeste, and a flavorful finale featuring cacao, sugarcane, and coffee.

Your journey begins in Tenorio National Park, where the tropical forest feels alive with every step. You’ll hike through lush vegetation until you reach Río Celeste Waterfall, a breathtaking turquoise display that’s perfect for photos and taking it all in. Important: swimming is not allowed at the waterfall, so the focus here is on enjoying the view and the atmosphere of the place.

After recharging with a traditional Costa Rican lunch, the exploration continues along trails where nature shows itself without filters. This is where one of the highlights happens: wildlife viewing in its natural habitat. With your guide’s support, you will see sloths, guaranteed, plus other species that often appear among the trees and dense foliage.

To wrap up, you’ll dive into Costa Rica’s flavors with a cacao, coffee, and sugarcane experience. You’ll learn about the process, aromas, and local tradition—and if you’d like an extra treat, coffee will be available for purchase during the visit. It’s the perfect mix of a demanding hike, true rainforest, and authentic local culture in one day.
