  4. Finca Modelo Ecologica

    This 3000-acre family finca offers a number of diversions, including two-hour dairy tours (US$15) and a similar perusal of its organic vegetable garden (US$25), but its raison d'etre is the new two-hour canyoneering tour, which winds past six waterfalls and includes a 40m rappel down the largest of them all.
