Campesino Farm Experience
Take a tour of the Agro-ecological farm located in the small town of Agua Azul, a short 10-minute drive from La Fortuna. Upon arrival, the group will be greeted with a fresh fruit juice and an informative explanation of the farm's main objectives, including promoting the sustainable use of natural resources and preserving Costa Rican traditions.
After this warm welcome, the group will learn to milk the cows. Everyone will have the opportunity to give it a try. Next, participants will taste homemade liquor, chocolate, and fresh milk while they observe the "alambique", the artisanal liquor distillation process. Participate in the sugar cane extraction to obtain a delicious juice and then try it alone with spearmint liquor.
Then visit a small archaeological ranch where guests can observe ancient indigenous pieces and learn the artisanal process of making chocolate from the cocoa fruit. Walk through and admire the orchid and medicinal plant gardens. After the journey, enjoy farm-fresh favorites like coffee, cheese, tortillas, hash, and others. Without a doubt, this is an experience filled with true Costa Rican culture, customs, and traditions that will not be forgotten.
Be sure to bring a camera, hat, raincoat, binoculars, change of clothes, hiking shoes, and insect repellent.
