    Big Surprise was the wonderful "fixed plate" lunch. Excellent from start to finish. Passion is the word the describe tour guides when they discuss coffee. Nice gift shop with decent prices. You all enjoyed the coffee tasting. Well worth the visit.

    Great introduction to permaculture principles including rain water collection and distribution. If that is not your thing - go for the hike and lunch. All with the trip.

    I highly recommend the Skywalk in addition to walking the trails of the Reserva Bosque Nuboso Santa Elena and the Monteverde Cloud Forest Biological Reserve. When we visited the Skywalk in the early morning we were able to spot monkeys and quetzals, which were incredible to see in wild. The views are stunning from the bridges.

    This Skywalk is operated and maintained by Sky Adventures. You buy your ticket at the same facility that operates the ziplines and tram. This is a modern facility with a nice restaurant and gift shop.

    Note that if you're fearful of heights, the Skywalk may not be your thing. There's six suspension bridge. The longest span is 700 feet with a height above the forrest floor or 160 feet!

    The coffee tasting was absolutely amazing! Chris is a coffee wizard and the experience was very informative. I learned a ton about the coffee making process and got to try the best coffee I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone!
