The Villa Blanca Cloud Forest Hotel is a destination and an experience in itself. Explore its rich history with a guided tour of its picturesque gardens and colonial architecture. Discover the secrets and legends of the La Mariana Chapel during a special storytelling activity that will take you back in time.
A traditional Costa Rican buffet lunch features authentic dishes with fresh regional flavors.
Unleash your creativity as you paint your own miniature oxcart wheel -- a special piece of art to take home as a keepsake. The western part of Costa Rica produces coffee renowned for its distinctive aroma and flavor -- enjoy a delicious cup of this coffee while you paint.
Your day ends with a visit to the hotel's Tico House Museum, where you'll learn about the daily life and traditions of Costa Rican people. Sample traditional sugarcane water and locally produced artisanal cheeses made here at Villa Blanca.
A brief stop en route back to the ship allows you to stretch your legs, enjoy beautiful gardens, and browse for a souvenir if you wish.
