All Nicaragua Tours & Excursions in 2026

Oscar was incredible! Get him as your guide if at all possible. He knows so much about the area and knows all of the people in Leon. He let us experience various foods, and when we asked questions about the church or the history, he had so much knowledge! He is very laid-back and is a gifted at what he does. My 19 year old son and I had a blast!!

The first stop was at the Masaya volcano which I found really interesting! The museum is super cute. The souvenir shops in this area were much cheaper and interesting than in other places. Anthony was great at giving us some time to browse without feeling like we were rushed. The lagoon was a cute spot for pics. Granada tour was great as well really felt like I saw a lot of the city with the short time I went. My favorite part was the boat ride inlets of Granada, I could have spent the whole day here to be honest. Overall I’d definitely recommend if you want to see quite a bit of Nicaragua when you are short on time.

This is an extremely challenging hike, but rewarding. It was cloudy at the top, but beautiful views on the way up and the way down. The La Union trail offered great views of the entire island. Our guide was very kind and a true mountain goat - he was patient to help and wait for us, I’m sure he could have hiked the volcano in half the time we took. For those who complain their guide wasn’t fluent in English, remember you are in their country, not yours and appreciate the culture.

This was such a delightful tour! A lot of things to see and do - time just flew! The tour guide Zohar demonstrated a lot of knowledge about the places we went through, was very engaging and communicated great both in English and in Spanish (I wanted to practice my Spanish a bit). Awesome boat ride (don't want to spoil, so just know it was wow!), visits to local business, historical places (obviously), great city views, Instagram-worth photos and the volcano! It was clear that the guide wanted to demonstrate the beauty of the places, for instance, when churches were closed for some time they seemed disappointed and tried to figure out how to handle the situation, they discovered changes in working hours, adjusted the tour and then gracefully returned back to the churches so guest (me) did not miss a thing! That was likely the best tour I had in Central America so far, do recommend to everyone! Bravo Zohar!

Zohar was a fantastic guide to the volcano. She is friendly, ambitious, and personable and was able to communicate well the history and culture of the Nicaraguan people, both past and present. She gave beneficial insight into Volcan Masaya, from it's formation and the history, to the folklore and cultural feelings about this unique part of the Managuan landscape. I asked many questions and she entertained my inquisitiveness. I'd advise to take along a bottle of water for the evening tour as the cue to the park entrance can get quite lengthy.

Such an amazing experience with a wonderful guide. Diana is so friendly and helpful throughout. Everything was perfect from the pre-activity communication to On-time pick up. Seamlessly organized throughout. And the experience… A great stretching session while you watch the sunrise and then a picturesque paddle across the lake. Diana is taking photos for you so no need to be concerned with that. Just enjoy the moment. Then you float and have some delicious local organic coffee tea and wonderful conversation with 360° views. Perfect way to start the day. 100% recommend.

This was amazing! It was just the two of us and two guides, who were so friendly and knowledgeable and made us feel safe even though it was a crazy experience. I went very slowly and my husband went way faster, and we both had a whale of a time and thankfully avoided any injuries doing this extreme sport.
