P rez, who morphs between the roles of driver, tour guide and host, describes the area as perfect for branching out into the sights around Cartago, among them the Iraz Volcano, the Orosi Valley, the Lankester Botanical Gardens or working coffee farms. The region is also dotted with trout farms ponds that are open for visitors who wish to catch their own lunch. There is plenty to do on the property, but we also hire outside guides for people who want to explore the area. Sleeping bags and extra blankets are provided for protection against the brisk night air. With so much to see and do here, mornings are not to be wasted.
Student discounts are available and children are welcome.
