Las Cavernas de Corredores
About 15km north of Neily on the road to San Vito, Las Cavernas de Corredores are a network of little-explored caverns on a private banana plantation. Besides the huge, impressive stalactites, several species of bats are also in the caves. It's not geared toward tourists, but it is usually possible to visit.

William Hidalgo
William Hidalgo is a local guide who leads travelers through Las Cavernas de Corredores. If you have a 4WD, turn off about 15km north of Neily, just before the school. The small pulpería (look for the 'telefono publico' sign) has more information.

Wilson Botanical Garden
Wilson Botanical Garden lies about 6km south of San Vito. Covering 12 hectares and surrounded by 254 hectares of natural forest, this world-class garden was established by Robert and Catherine Wilson in 1963 and thereafter became internationally known for its collection.
In 1973 the area came under the auspices of the Organization for Tropical Studies (OTS) and today the well-maintained garden – part of Las Cruces Biological Station – holds more than 1000 genera of plants from about 200 families. As part of the OTS, the garden plays a scientific role as a research center. Species threatened with extinction are preserved here for possible reforestation in the future.
