American Travel Tren y Faenas a
la Tica
 This
train tour aims to bring visitors back to Costa Rica's old
cattle farming and train traditions. The tour begins when
the train departs for the town of Balsa. Along the 42 km ride
you will pass by picturesque communities such as San Antonio
de Belen and Rio Grande de Atenas. You will reach Balsa where
students from the Central American School of Cattle farming
will welcome you and show you the points of interest in the
town. Then you will enjoy a traditional cattle show called
"Faenas de Ganaderas". After the show you will have time to
walk around the town, participate in traditional games, or
enjoy a typical lunch before the trip back to San Jose.
Frog Pond
 In this herpetarium you can admire over 20 different species of frogs and other amphibians. Walk with guides and learn about species that are unique to the tropics of Costa Rica such as the colorful Poison Arrow Frog, the very large Marine Toad and the famous Red Eyed Tree Frog. The Frog Pond has both diurnal and nocturnal frogs, and their activities can thus be observed during the day or night.
Yoga Centers

By working on body positions and meditation and breathing techniques, Yoga helps you achieve a union between the body, soul, and mind.
