Cooking Class & Bonfire at a Local Farm Manuel Antonio


Just 25 minutes from Manuel Antonio and Quepos, we’ll take you to experience a different kind of evening — away from the crowds and close to what feels real.
We begin in the late afternoon, and when the weather allows, you’ll enjoy the sunset as we head toward one of the lesser-known rural towns in the area. There, an ecological farm welcomes us — a place where the ingredients grow right where we cook them.
The heart of the experience is a hands-on Costa Rican cooking class, where you’ll learn traditional techniques, see how each dish comes together, and taste the local flavors that define our culture.
It’s not just about cooking — it’s about connecting with people, stories, and the rhythm of local life.
If the weather cooperates, the night ends by the river with a bonfire, sharing coffee and Costa Rican folk stories, told just the way locals do.
🔥 In case of rain, the evening adapts indoors with the same warm and authentic atmosphere.
A night to relax, eat well, and experience Costa Rican hospitality at its best.
