Nicaragua Tour
Nicaragua Tours main page

Nicaragua is ravishingly beautiful country. It possesses all the natural wonders of Costa Rica and more - more stunning volcanoes, national parks and wildlife reserves, mesmerizing Pacific coast and the pearl of colonial towns - Granada. In Costa Rica they claim Nicaragua is dangerous and primitive so they may retain the hegemony on tourism in the region. While in Costa Rica tour after tour, bus after bus brings hordes of tourists to the very same sites, in Nicaragua you can still feel the euphoria of discovery before mass travel spoils it all. It's time you discover Nicaragua for yourself!

This tour combines cultural heritage of Granada and Leon with the diverse Nicaraguan nature of the the Mombacho & Masaya volcanoes, the islands of Ometepe and Juan Venado, Mud Pools of San Jacinto, and more, including visits to San Juan del Sur, the "White Villages" as well as the art market of Masaya, providing for an exciting itinerary with fine hotels at a very affordable price.
