Immerse yourself in Costa Rican culture on a traditional food walking tour in Jacó. Explore charming streets, visit local bars and restaurants, and indulge in delicious traditional dishes.
- Jaco - We will seize the opportunity to savor the vibrant flavors and hues of Costa Rica, immersing in the exploration of traditional Costa Rican dishes, as we stroll through the bustling streets of Jaco town, particularly its lively epicenter.
In a typical tour we’ll experience the distinctive street dish known as ‘caldosas,’ an intriguing blend of corn chips and Costa Rican ceviche.
Our culinary journey will then lead us to a traditional local bar, where we’ll relish the refreshing and smooth notes of a traditional ‘Michelada’ beer, and if we’re lucky we might get a free “gallito” from the bar.
- Jaco Beach - Next we will go to a beautiful restaurant to enjoy an amazing dish that includes typical ingredients from Costa Rica, such as palmito and pejibaye.
We will leisurely stroll along the beach, later returning to the main avenue to engage in another typical Costa Rican beverage experience: ‘el chiliguaro.’ This unique shot combines Costa Rican moonshine with a special blend of chile and Tabasco.
- Jaco District - Continuing our exploration, we’ll meander back to the beach, taking a seat to relish the natural landscape and, if fortunate, witness a breathtaking sunset. Here, we’ll be served the traditional dish ‘Chifrijo,’ a fusion of ‘chicharrones’ (a traditional way of preparing pork chops) and frijoles, expertly mixed in a bowl.
After savoring this delicious plate, we’ll stroll back to the meeting point, making a final stop at the most popular ice cream parlor to indulge in ‘Churchill,’ a beloved and popular way of serving ice cream.
Be mindful the dishes may vary depending on the day and time of year.
