    DO IT!!! BOOK IT

    THE TOUR WAS AMAZING!the tour guide was so informative, knowledgeable and outgoing. The tour guide took his all over the farm, showed us all types of plants and remedies. We tried cocoa. He offered delicious home made beverages. We got to feed the cows and chickens. He has the most friendliest and cutest dogs. This farm was cozy, big and tropical. Recommend this tour!! The Tori guide was so sweet and it’s so impressive how much he knows about remedies. Shared with his growing up experiences and patient remedy stories. Again such an amazing experience PLEASE book it!!

    Inspiring!!

    Jose's passion and expertise related to plants and how to use them is limitless. He shared more knowledge than we could hope to retain but kept us all fascinated as he walked us through his domain. The world he and his wife have created is inspiring.. If you are interested in the medicinal qualities of plants and how to live off the land, this is a must!

    Unique excursion

    The passion he has for sharing his knowledge and love of ecology shines through. It was a nice break from the hustle and bustle of other excursions. Highly recommend it for others.

    A Soulful, Grounded Experience in Nature

    This was one of the most grounding and beautiful experiences we did in La Fortuna. From the moment we arrived at Ticote Medicine Farm, we felt welcomed into a space that was alive and intentional. The farm felt like a living apothecary, full of healing plants and vibrant green life all around us. It was peaceful and rich with stories of traditional herbal wisdom and the way nature supports everyday life here. Our guide walked us slowly through different plants, explaining how they are used medicinally and culturally. Nothing felt rushed. It felt like a conversation, like being invited to see the land in a deeper way. We did the night tour, which made it even more special. Walking through the farm in the dark with flashlights felt like stepping into another world. We found frogs tucked into leaves, tiny lizards blending into branches, an opossum moving quietly through the trees, and yes… bullet ants. Seeing them up close was both fascinating and slightly intimidating, but it made the experience feel real and wild in the best way. What I loved most was how personal it felt. It was not a big, chaotic group. It felt thoughtful and intentional. By the end, I felt calmer and more connected, like I had learned something that will stay with me long after the trip. If you are looking for something reflective and rooted in nature, especially if you love plants and wildlife, this is such a beautiful experience.

    Ticote Medicine Farm Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for La Fortuna.

    How much does Ticote Medicine Farm Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in La Fortuna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Ticote Medicine Farm Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in La Fortuna is not rushed.

    Is Ticote Medicine Farm Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in La Fortuna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Ticote Medicine Farm Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Ticote Medicine Farm Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Ticote Medicine Farm Tour?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in La Fortuna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in La Fortuna and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Ticote Medicine Farm Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central La Fortuna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in La Fortuna?

    +

    On Outty we rank every La Fortuna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Upper Balsa River White Water Rafting Class 3/4 in Costa Rica, White Water Rafting Class II and III, Authentic Coffee and Chocolate Tour at North Fields. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit La Fortuna?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in La Fortuna?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Ticote Medicine Farm Tour?

    +

    Included: Enjoy a fresh cup of garden tea hand-picked by you. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Ticote Medicine Farm Tour?

    +

    Enjoy free parking in our private parking lot located just inside Ticoté Medicine Farm main entrance. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Ticote Medicine Farm Tour offered in?

    +
