Nicaragua- more than what I expected.

Venus_d, Mar 2024

Communication was easy. There were several guides/drivers involved CR side and Nicaragua side, but everything being done was communicated to the group. We were picked up exactly on time. Driven to the border and had a short walk to the Nicaraguan Immigration where we waited for 30-45 minutes to be allowed in, but our first guide David made sure that we were processed quickly, same with coming back. Never once did I feel unsafe. The entire tour was so worth doing! Just to see how different life is on the Nicaragua side. Granada is well preserved! Food served was good! Breakfast by Lake Nicaragua was delicious, but the coffee was the best part. Rodolfo, our guide even placed the lunch order in advance so it is near ready when we arrive. Souvenirs in Apoyo Crater Lake are less pricey compared in CR. This tour made me want to come back and visit Nicaragua again, this time for a few more days!

Must Do

Luke_J, Jul 2023

This is a must do tour if you visit Liberia, everything that you do on the tour is so much fun even the stuff you may not be interested in, Granada is a beautiful colonial city, the volcanos are stunning, the chocolate factory is fun and the boat ride cannot be missed, Nicaraguan food is also so good. Claudio makes the trip amazing you have to worry about nothing you just sit there and he takes you around the entire country and to local places not tourist traps. He has 25 years of experience and you can tell he knows everyone from the border gaurds to random people on the street, you do not feel unsafe at all. Bottom line of your in Liberia DO THIS TOUR
