Embark on our Cultural Immersion Tour in Quepos, perfect for blending language with Costa Rica's vibrant culture. Start with a downtown tour, exploring shops and historical sites, learning Spanish naturally.

Then, engage in a scavenger hunt at the local market, using Spanish to discover unique veggies and treats, immersing yourself in local life.

Afterward, join a cooking workshop in a Costa Rican home, where families teach you to make traditional dishes like tortillas, ceviche, and Costa Rican coffee, expanding your Spanish vocabulary.

This intimate half-day tour, ideal for small groups, goes beyond language learning—it's an entrance to the Costa Rican way of life. Join us to merge culture and language in an unforgettable experience.

Excellent tour! Tour Guide John is passionate about his job, and the tour appealed to both grandparents and kids in our group! This was one of our favourite tours! We strolled around Quepos a bit, learning along the way, then took the ferry to El Cocal where we went to a local’s home and learned how to make bracelets and empanadas, and enjoyed some fresh juice and coffee!

Most original and authentic tour we have done in our time in Central America, would totally recommend as an alternative afternoon when visiting Costa Rica. Pura Vida.

Wat een super interessante en leuke tour waarin je informatie krijgt over Quepos en hoe de mensen daar leven. Iedereen kan veel vertellen en nemen de tijd voor je. We hebben armbandje gemaakt wat ze daar maken om geld te verdienen en nadien een Costa Ricaanse snack gemaakt en gegeten. We werden goed verwerend en kregen een warm welkom
