Chocolate Farm Tour & La Fortuna Waterfall

Like Central America's very own Willy Wonka, Costa Rica cultivates world-class cacao beans – the key ingredient in top-quality chocolate. Take a two-hour tour of a fairtrade cacao farm to see how the beans ultimately end up as high-end organic chocolate bars. There'll be plenty of sweet treats to sample followed by a swim in La Fortuna Waterfall.
