Folklore comes alive in Santa Cruz, a land of proud Guanacastecans. Civic fiestas honor this legacy with displays of sabanero abilities in the town rodeos, cattle exhibitions, traditional cuisine and the harmonious beat of the marimba (a native version of a xylophone).
 Santa Cruz Experience Costa Rica's cowboy culture on your own at several ranches located throughout the region. Hacienda tourism is the new trend in the industry, which consists of large, working ranches opened up to the public by their owners. Visitors can horseback ride through the savannah and dry forests, milk cows, herd cattle, dine with the family and become sabanero for a day.
