Whether you are galloping across the sprawling, sun-drenched plains or trotting along the shoreline as the Pacific waves lap at your horse’s hooves, the experience offers a unique perspective that you simply can’t get from a car or on foot. It is incredibly fun because it combines the thrill of adventure with a peaceful connection to nature; you might find yourself ducking under tropical canopies to spot howler monkeys one moment and watching a fiery “Gold Coast” sunset from a high ridge the next. The rhythmic pace of the horse allows you to soak in the sights and smells of the dry tropical forest, making it a memorable highlight for anyone looking to feel the true spirit of Guanacaste.

We arrived in evening around 4:30pm.  Upon arrival you get a glass of champagne and you hang out for a bit to view the beautiful region of Guanacaste. They take you for a tour of the Castle then to an area on the 3rd floor where you are free to watch the sunset.  In Costa Rica the sun sets about 6pm every night.   Another drink is included per person and an appetizer. After the sunset you here all about the Castle, why it is there, who built it.  Such in interesting story.  It reminds me of the Taj Mahal. Every dinner group get a separate area to dine.  And you get to choose what you want ahead of time.  I choose the filet mignon,  it was cooked to perfection. My husband choose a curry Mahi Mahi.  They also include more appetizers and a dessert.   The meal was just perfection. This tour is pricey, $150 a person, but the food is seriously delicious.   The story is interesting.  To me it is a restaurant/tour.  It takes about 4 hours for the whole experience.  For a special event, I highly recommend this.   Castillo de Lilo Website – Book a Tour
