About
A coffee-and-chocolate farm tour that even tour-skeptics call a highlight. Guides like Cesar, David and Valerie keep it fast-paced and funny while you work through generous tastings — two coffees, as much chocolate as you want, sugar cane juice, even moonshine for the adults. The grounds look out on the volcano, and reviewers note the gift shop is priced more reasonably than most.

One of our favorite activities in Costa Rica. We usually skip tours because they often feel slow paced, but the North Fields Chocolate and Coffee Tour completely changed our minds. From start to finish, it was engaging, interactive, and very well paced. Our guide Cesar was outstanding and truly the reason this tour stood out. He was knowledgeable, passionate, and incredibly easy to listen to, making the entire experience feel natural and fun rather than like a typical tour. He explained the coffee and chocolate process in a way that was interesting for everyone, and his enthusiasm really brought it all to life. The tasting sessions for both chocolate and coffee were a huge highlight and absolutely delicious. We also noticed families with kids on the tour, and they were clearly having a great time too.
Our guide David was fantastic! He was incredibly knowledgeable and clearly passionate about coffee and chocolate—but what really made the tour stand out was his great sense of humor. We got to sample a wide variety of coffee, chocolate, and sugar cane, and the different toppings paired with the chocolate were a fun bonus to try. We couldn’t resist bringing a few bags home, including the flavored nibs and some coffee beans. Such a fun day and definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Costa Rica. Highly recommend—don’t hesitate to book!
This was one of the best tours we did in Costa Rica! We had a great tour guide, Valerie, who was super super knowledgeable and engaging. The samples were very generous - 2 coffee tastings, as many different chocolate tastes as you wanted, cocoa bean fruit, 2 cups of melted chocolate, sugar cane juice, moonshine for the adults! We were always offered more samples if we wanted but we were honestly full after the ones that were provided. The grounds are beautiful and have a great view of the volcano. Gift shop is also reasonably priced compared to other souvenir shops. Thank you Valerie!
