Overview

This coffee crawl connects specialty coffee, history, and the city itself into a single narrative. You don’t just visit cafés; you walk the same streets where coffee wealth shaped political decisions, funded public spaces, and helped define Costa Rica’s social identity.
It’s great because it’s slow, human, and immersive. You experience the city at walking pace, with time to taste, listen, and reflect. The 11 stops create rhythm: coffee, street, story, coffee again.
It’s also great because it’s local and authentic. You’re not following a generic tour; you’re engaging with independent specialty coffee shops, passionate baristas, and real historical spaces that still shape daily life in San José.
And finally, it’s great because it changes how you see coffee. By the end of the crawl, coffee is no longer just a beverage—it’s a cultural force that helped build a country, a city, and a way of thinking that values dialogue, community, and identity.

Activity itinerary

Discover San José like never before—through its coffee and its stories. On this walking experience, you’ll visit 3 specialty coffee shops that showcase Costa Rica’s rich coffee culture, while exploring the streets, plazas, and landmarks that shaped the nation’s history. With 11 curated stops, the crawl blends the sensory pleasures of coffee with the deeper narrative of how this humble bean transformed Costa Rica. From fueling political decisions in the 19th century to financing theaters, universities, and public works, coffee built the foundations of our political and social reality. At each café, you’ll enjoy a different perspective of specialty coffee—whether it’s a unique brewing method, a tasting of local micro-lots, or conversations with passionate baristas. Between shops, you’ll wander through San José’s historic center, stopping at key landmarks that reveal how coffee exports forged our identity and connected Costa Rica to the wider world. By the end, you’ll have tasted the city in its purest form: through its coffee, its streets, and its stories.
