Private guided tours
Our tourist guide is Cristian.
He is a Nicaraguan National Tour Guide, affiliated with the
Nicaraguan Institute of Tourism INTUR, with over 17 years of experience in guiding
people around Nicaragua and Central America. He speaks English fluently,
very knowledgeable about history, nature and culture and is very friendly,
honoring Nicaraguan hospitable tradition.
Our tour packages and day excursions will give you an idea of what you could do in Nicaragua. However, we like to customize a tour package just for you, based on your interests, length of your stay, and budget.
What we offer are private tours. You are the only participant(s) and are therefor in control.
You already know what you want to do and see, and just want somebody to guide you around? Cristian is available on hourly basis as well, with a minimum of 4 hours.
When you have already a vehicle, then that one we will use. Else we will arrange a vehicle just for your tour(s). This does not apply to the Granada city tour, since a horse-drawn carriage will then be used.
You just want a driver, not a guide. That service we offer as well.
We hope you explore Nicaragua. There is so much to see.
