Overview

Taste your way through Costa Rica on this 8-day guided journey where the country's landscapes and its flavors go hand in hand.

Roll up your sleeves for a hands-on cooking class making the traditional 'casado,' then learn salsa and bachata with local instructors. Walk a working coffee plantation and follow the bean from planting to cup, then discover how cacao becomes chocolate.
