...I did in all of the touristy type things in Costa Rica over two weeks. It helped to have a truly spectacular day weather-wise, but it's simply a gorgeous setting to walk through, see animals, birds, insects, spend some time "back to nature" (definitely go solo or with a small group). Even the demonstration of traditional chocolate making was just a perfect little touch in the midst of the preserve.

In this large reserve you can do walks from half an hour untill about five hours. You can do that on your own or with a guide. There are also some special tours.

This was our first stop on our 16 day trip to Costa Rica. It immediately plunged us into nature. The guides here are amazingly well informed and professional. Willie was our guide for two tours and he is very professional. The rooms are pretty spartan but the surroundings make it all worth it. We took all our meals here at their buffet. There are not a lot of choices, but one can find enough to eat if not too choosey. The food in general in Costa Rica we found to be rather bland. But, the cooks here take a lot of pride in preparing and serving the food. Be prepared to hike in all weather conditions. We were glad that we had brought our boots and rain gear. All the nature experiences involve crossing a very long hanging bridge over the rushing Sarapiqui river. This is really the jungle.

Tirimbina Bio Reserve is definitely worth a visit. Very well presented lecture about coco trees and the discovery of coco beans and ultimately the making of chocolate. The rain forest in that area seems in particular attractive. Visited with a tour group and we wish we had more time to hike and explore. Less crowded than other places which is a big plus. Traditional CR lunch was excellent.

We had a pleasant walk through the rainforest and across the suspension bridge with our tour group, and while we saw numerous birds and a few monkeys on the way there and back, the highlight of Tirimbina was the chocolate plantation presentation at the end of the trail.The two docents explaining how chocolate was cultivated and originally processed into a drink, and then food, were friendly and patient with their explanations, and passed around everything they talked about (leaves from the cacao plant, a cacao seed pod, a cacao bean, etc.). We got to sample cacao in several forms (roasted bean, processed powder, hot drink, chocolate bar), and were given a small bag of cacao beans as a keepsake (which we could then turn around and use as currency to "buy" some postcards).

In our Ara Ambigua lodge nearby we booked the chocolate tour in the Tirimbina Biological Reserve. The reserve appeared to be a beatiful part of the jungle of Sarapiquí. From the reception you cross a swing bridge across the Sarapiquí river, offering a great view at the river itself and the canopy of the forest. Within a 20 minutes walk through the forest we reached the chocolate tour. Our guides explained the history and traditional ways of making chocolate. They did this in a very attractive manner and they involve you in the making process, all in a light and entertaining way.After the chocolate tour we followed one of the trails through the forest. We watched the vegetation and were wondered by this beautiful rain forest. Visit this beautiful region and especially this park, it is worth a trip!

We had intended to just walk in the forest but were then told that by doing the chocolate tour it enabled you to stay in the reserve at no extra cost. We are pleased that we did as the chocolate tour was extremely interesting and our guide also explained about the reserve and pointed out flora and fauna along the route to where the chocolate demonstration is sited. We enjoyed several hours walking through the forest although there is limited wild life to see but as we were leaving several flocks of birds flew over. All the staff we had contact with were very helpful and polite, there is good wifi in the reception area.

Aside from being an up incredible place to walk through the rain forst and see the canopy of lushious vegetation while crossing rushing rivers on hanging bridges, the evening bat educational experience was an eye opener. I hated bats, really hated them, until I went with a group and learned about the research they're doing on bats at the center there. They taught us all about the differences between the major categories of bats and showed us some of the ones they caught that night, asking us if we could identify them before they released them. It totally changed the way I have felt about these creatures since I was a child. Now that's powerful.

we went to tirimbina to take part at a chocolate tour. after passing the longest hanging bridge in costs rica with great views we went to an open hut in the jungle to learn about chocolate. the guide was explaining a lot of interesting facts and was helped by a colleague who demonstrated the just learned on real cacao beans. in the end we all got to try one of the best chocolates we ever had. as a drink and as a melted sensation.the atmosphere was great an the guide was very nice and informative. after the tour we could still walk around several trails on our own and experience nature. it is really worth the visit (and the money).

This reserve is very close to San Jose, about a two hour drive. It give you the great opportunity to visit a natural forest, with good guides, with the facility of getting there through paved roads. You do not need to travel hours and hours to see a natural forest. It also has a variety of tours that you can take
