Experience of a lifetime

Published on May, 2024

Enjoy every minute of it, thank to Eduardo (big Papi) who helped us with this amazing experience. My wife and I with my best friend and his wife are discussing our return trip back to go and see more of that amazing views Costa Rica and Nicaragua has to offer. This experience was being if not one to remember. If in the future, it would be a place to retire.

You WON’T be disappointed! Choose this excursion!

Published on Oct, 2023

This was such a fun experience and I would recommend it to anyone! My party of 8 came to visit Costa Rica and left getting to experience Nicaragua too. Eduardo was the best excursion leader and did everything to make this an experience of a lifetime. He also took a ton of pictures and videos from start to finish and sends them all to you at the end of the trip. If you’re worried about a lot of walking, this trip is minimal in that department. The most walking you’ll do is crossing the board from Costa Rica to Nicaragua and going through customs. Otherwise, the shuttles take you exactly to were you need to be. Breakfast and lunch were included and provided the traditional cultural experience, both were delicious! They are also accommodating to any food sensitivities and allergens as well. The best part of the trip I’d say was the volcano visit with such a beautiful view of an active volcano from the top but everything was amazing from start to finish. Such an informative excursion if you’re into history and learning about other cultures and there’s something for everyone. The chocolate tour was fun and engaging, the men of the group really enjoyed the cigar tour. Can’t thank Eduardo enough for encouraging us to choose this excursion.

Amazing day trip to Nicaragua

Published on Sep, 2022

What an amazing day trip to Nicaragua - A very well organised and packed fun filled day. We had a private bus which picked us up from our hotel very early to take us to boarders to cross over to Nicaragua which is where we met our 2 lovely tour guides . We had a lovely traditional breakfast and then went on to visit Rivas, a local market, volcano Masaya which is an active volcano, this was the most amazing experience then they prepared lunch for us at a traditional Nicaraguan restaurant which was absolutely delicious. We then visited a local chocolate factory to see the full end to end process of how chocolate is made before it ends up on the shop shelves. Following that we went on a horse ride around the town while they explained about the history of this beautiful country and to finish off we went on the most amazing boat ride where we visited monkey island and fed spider monkeys - this was by far my most favourite and fun filled excursion we have done and I would recommend this tour to anyone

Fun and informative day in Nicaragua

Published on Aug, 2022

I had a great time. Never once did I feel unsafe as a solo traveler. It was a combination of exploring the geography, animals, history, culture, and seeing first hand what the country is like. I would highly recommend this tour as they take care of everything so you don’t have to. Make sure to bring some US dollars if buying rum, cigars, gifts interests you as that is their preference for currency.
