Description

Step into a world of natural healing with a medicinal plant tour and tea-making class. Connect with Costa Rica’s ancient herbal traditions on a 2-hour experience in DreamTreeXP’s lush permaculture gardens at the base of the Arenal Volcano. Led by a knowledgeable bilingual guide, walk shaded pathways while identifying dozens of species known for their healing properties. Learn about traditional uses of herbs, leaves, roots, and barks used for everything from boosting immunity to soothing digestion and calming the mind. With volcano views and hummingbirds in the background, this walk is as calming as it is informative. After foraging ingredients, join your guide at an outdoor tea station where you’ll craft your own herbal tea blend using fresh-picked botanicals. Enjoy your creation with a light snack as you take in the peaceful farm scenery. Tours begin at 11:00 AM or 3:00 PM and are ideal for wellness travelers, herbalists, and curious families.
