Coffee Tour
Gray Line Costa Rica
San Jose
Costa Rica
Thu, 8th January 2009 - Mon, 30th November 2009

Imagine following the journey of a coffee bean from the plantation - to the processing plant to a cup of gourmet coffee. When you take the Coffee Tour at Café Britt you’ll do exactly that! Their professional acting troupe, dressed in traditional garb, will escort you through an interactive multi-media tour through the history of coffee. On their finca, as the plantation is called in Spanish, your day starts on six-acres of coffee fields, tropical gardens and coffee processing facilities.
We’ll teach you all about coffee cultivation - and not just by giving you the facts - feel free to pick a few ripe cherries to taste their sweetness or take a few of the dried beans home to grow a plant of your own! From the fields, we’ll take you into our roasting and packaging facilities where you’ll soak in the aroma of roasting coffee and learn all about this magical process that turns a red coffee cherry into a delicious cup of java.
Then, in our theater, sit back and watch a multi-media play and presentation of coffee’s place in world history. Learn about how deeply coffee culture is woven into the history and people of Costa Rica - and be prepared to have a few good laughs while you’re at it. Although incredibly knowledgeable, our troupe has a rather short serious threshold!
Includes: Transportation (pick ups directly from the most popular Hotels in San Jose Area) and guide.
Bring: Long trousers/pants, comfortable shoes, light jacket, and camera
