Botanical Tours

We’d be happy for you to join us on one of our guided group botanical tours to different countries to experience plants both in the wild and in botanical gardens. Our first trip for 2025 is announced:

COSTA RICA BOTANICAL GARDEN GROUP TOUR
December 7-12, 2025
We'll be making our way through a series of botanical gardens to the beautiful forests of Sarapiqui, Costa Rica—and staying at premium hotels and eco-lodges along the way. Once we're in Sarapiqui, we'll have the opportunity to explore the rainforest and also experience some of Sarapiqui's agricultural treasures with tours of an old cacao farm and an organic farm, where you'll get to experience the sustainable harmony between cultivation and conservation. As night descends, we'll embark on a guided nocturnal adventure, exploring the mysteries of the forest with a captivating night walk. And on our way back towards San Jose, we'll continue to explore some of Costa Rica's botanical gardens with private tours.

COMING SOON: THAILAND BOTANICAL GROUP TOUR
February 17-23, 2026
This will be an unforgettable journey from the bustling streets of Bangkok to the breathtaking landscapes of Chiang Mai. We'll kick off the trip with a visit to the famous Chatuchak Plant Market (as featured on 'Plant One On Me' YouTube channel), where you'll see purveyors and plant aficionados alike purchasing one-of-a-kind plants, as if they are rare gems. Then we will regroup and head to the Damnoen Saduak Floating Market for a taste of local life and visit a sugar palm farm. We'll further immerse ourselves in Thai culture with a hands-on cooking class at Kok Na Sai Farm, learning to craft authentic dishes from farm-fresh ingredients. From there, we'll depart on the overnight train to Chiang Mai and arrive in time for a little refreshment, a great lunch at a special botanic spot, and then get a private tour of the impressive Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden. We'll conclude the scenic escape to the breathtaking Doi Inthanon National Park, where we'll hike the fairytale like Ang Ka Nature Trail for which you'll see moss festooned from every tree branch; and some more special botanic hotspots. This trip blends botany, culture, and traveling with newfound friends all in one.
