Overview
• Let us take you to a real coffee plantation, experiment and see how is the technique and the process of sowing, harvesting and producing this important grain. Later we will go to one of the most visited places in Costa Rica (La Paz Waterfall Gardens) . The waterfall is located immediately alongside the road from Alajuela that leads to the northern plains of Costa Rica. The River La Paz forms the waterfall after traversing 8 kilometres (5 mi) of volcanic terrain, and then continues through the rainforest of the eastern side of Poás Volcano. A short path leads behind the waterfall, where a small shrine had been located. Upstream from the waterfall is La Paz Waterfall Gardens, a park, where visitors can observe many different species of local wildlife.

What To Expect
Jardins da Cachoeira de La Paz
The jungle cats exhibit is another attraction at La Paz Waterfalls Garden. The jungle cats stay in captivity because they cannot be released back into the wild - most of them were old, injured or were exposed to humans for too long. During the tour, you can observe them and learn a lot about the felines species in Costa Rica.

Reviews
The waterfalls were beautiful and to be expected. I didn't realize the waterfall garden also had some animal rescue stuff, so that was a delightful surprise. Got to see parrots, toucans, some monkeys, a few cats, hummingbirds, frogs, butterflies, AND SLOTHS!!!!
Unfortunately, the coffee plantation we went to was closed, so no gift shop section was available to buy the coffee - but that's fine. We still went to the fields and got a ton of info about coffee.
I would do this tour again if I can back with friends!
One of the better tours we've taken and well worth the cost.
