In just one day, you’ll experience three of Costa Rica’s most unique highlights: the force of an active volcano, the richness of rainforest wildlife, and the story behind one of the world’s most famous coffees. At Poás Volcano, you’ll stand at the edge of one of the world’s largest active craters, a rare opportunity to see geology in action. La Paz Waterfall Gardens then surrounds you with nature at its best—towering waterfalls, exotic wildlife, and vibrant gardens that reveal the country’s biodiversity in one place. Finally, Hacienda Alsacia offers an inside look at Starbucks’ only coffee farm, where sustainable practices meet the tradition of Costa Rican coffee, ending with a cup enjoyed against sweeping mountain views.

Poas Volcano National Park
Poás Volcano is one of Costa Rica’s most iconic natural wonders. The main crater, nearly 1.5 km wide, is among the largest active craters in the world. Visitors follow a short 0.5 km trail (about 10 minutes each way) to reach the overlook, where breathtaking views reveal the immense power of this active volcano.
La Paz Waterfall Gardens
Costa Rica’s most complete nature park: five stunning waterfalls, cloud forest trails, a large butterfly observatory, hummingbird garden, and animal sanctuaries with jaguars, pumas, monkeys, and toucans, all in one visit. A single stop that combines the best of Costa Rica’s wildlife and scenery.
Hacienda Alsacia Starbucks Coffee Farm
Discover the world’s only Starbucks coffee farm, nestled in the lush mountains of Costa Rica. At Alsacia, you’ll walk through scenic plantations, learn how Starbucks grows, processes, and roasts its coffee, and see sustainable farming in action. The highlight comes as you enjoy a freshly brewed cup overlooking breathtaking views of the Central Valley, an experience you won’t find anywhere else in the world
