Great day trip to Nicaragua!

Published on Jan, 2025

We were two couples vacationing in Costa Rica and wanted a tour that was short to Nicaragua. So we chose this one day visit. It took us two hours on a Monday morning at 7:50 AM. But once we got through immigration, it was a great day! The variety of attractions that are great tour guide, Eric showed us were so wonderful. He was a wealth of information. Just remember that when you’re going through immigration to take all your belongings with you because you will be in a different vehicle once you get to Nicaragua.

Phenomenal Service

Published on Jul, 2024

I love these people. They picked me up on time and were very professional. Alex and Daniella were kind and very fun to ride with. I loved their suggestions, expertise, and their safety. I felt secure and they had my family laughing from the get go. 5 out of 5 stars any day. One of my favorite days of my life.

Highly recommended

Published on Jun, 2024

I had an excellent experience from start to finish the Nicaragua Tour was excellent. They provided us with transportation from San Jose airport to Tamarindo and back. It was very hot, but I had cold water ready and an air-conditioned van, which was a relief. The communication to organize the trip was excellent. I highly recommend as they took the stress out of what could have been a difficult trip and made it much easier.

Excellent Service
