Local Farm Ride & Adventure

Tortilla-making, zipline or ATV, horseback cattle herding and a traditional casado lunch.

A day at a cattle ranch that has been in a Guanacaste family for generations. Make your own corn tortillas, coffee and Costa Rican treats, then take off by zipline — or upgrade to a 1-hour ATV ride ($282 per person) — to the horse corral. Ride through the fields gathering cattle into the old stone corral, where lunch is served: a traditional 'casado' with rice and beans, salad, steamed vegetables, refried beans with local cheese and plantain chips. Lunch, private transport, bilingual guide, drinks, zipline, horseback ride and cooking lesson included.
