SHORE EXCURSION: Oxcart Factory Shopping Experience
PORT OF CALL: PUNTARENAS & CALDERA













DESCRIPTION:

Sarchi is the home of Costa Rica's craftsmanship. This scenic town is located west of the Central Valley just 40 miles away from Puntarenas Port.

It is an area surrounded by coffee and sugar cane plantations. As guests pass through this town they will discover the Costa Rican farmers most important symbol, the brightly colored hand-painted oxcart. This tradition started over a century ago and you will have the opportunity to watch practiced craftsmen as they paint their oxcarts just like their ancestors did at the turn of the century.

Shopping time is scheduled here. A large variety of woodcrafts, leather goods, beautiful post cards and souvenirs of all kinds will be available. Just before going back to the pier, enjoy the town of Grecia. Here we will make a short stop for picture taking of its park and unique late 1800's all metal church.

After Grecia, passengers are ready to enjoy the green-blue mountains and the 1.5 hour tour back to the ship.
