    Nicaragua is a great experience with Native Way toirs
    The tour guide in Niccarauga was very knowledge and fun to be with. We saw so many great areas of the country - the volcano national park was my favourite. I definitely would recommend this tour with Native Way.

    Once in a life time experience in Nicaragua
    My wife and I were on a vacation in Playa Hermosa and booked a day trip to Nicaragua and it was beyond amazing. Marlene, our guide, picked us up from the hotel early in the morning, and we started our private tour with a long but beautiful ride to the border of Nicaragua. She helped us with the boarding process, which only took a few minutes. Right after, we stopped and had a delicious breakfast. What a great way to start the day! We then went to see a no longer active volcano which was filled with water! What an amazing sight! Did some local shopping and then went to see the Masaya volcano! This is an experience you don’t want to miss!

    Afterwards, we stopped in the city of Granada where we had a horse carriage ride, a chocolate making experience and then a magical boat ride to see some of the most amazing and beautiful monkeys. Then one final stop was a later lunch of our choice.

    Everything was awesome and Marlene made us feel like we were family. Thank you, Marlene for this amazing day, I would highly recommend that everyone should visit Nicaragua, this is an experience you don’t want to miss!

    Best tour ever in the world
    This is a nice tour ever done before, the Masaya Volcano is really nice you can see the real Magma from the Volcano. If you want to live it real you must go to Masaya Volcano.

    The best!!
    First time users of Tours by Locals(and to Nicaragua) and it was the best!! Gerald took us to the volcano (which was amazing), around the city (to beautiful and historical places), and to Grenada…but his knowledge and friendship was above and beyond our expectations! We had the best experience seeing how safe and magical and interesting Managua was. We couldn’t have navigated the city or seen so much, without Gerald. He even told us about other places to visit on our next trip to Nicaragua. Thank you sooo much Gerald!!

    Five Star Nicaragua Tour
    Excellent in all respects! As world travelers we do enjoy the added cultural insight gained by the assistance of local guides.
    We would not visit Nicaragua again without Vapues! Rayna coordinated all perfectly. She was so friendly and diligent with daily texts as to pick ups and drop offs and drivers. She gave us total peace of mind. Oscar, our guide in Granada, spoke perfect English and was as informative as he was courteous and friendly with a great sense of humor. A man of many talents, he had an answer for every one of our many questions. He helped us with special requests. He met us at the border and accompanied us through Immigration- which can be daunting the first time. His encouragement gave us the courage to zip line for the first time! The meals included were first rate as were the hotels, all of which we highly recommend. There was nothing we would change. Thank you Vapues for service we can highly recommend to others!

    Such a great hike and ziplining experience!
    We booked a hike and ziplining tour for Volcan Mombacho super last minute, day-of and they were wonderful about accommodating our family of 6 ranging in ages from 8-47. Januar our guide was so knowledgeable about the area and we had a wonderful day. Looking forward to coming back and booking another tour with them!

    Great end to our trip
    Me and one other traveler booked a last second tour with ShowMeNicaragua for the last day of our trip in Nicaragua. We were picked up and dropped off in San Juan Del Sur and were able to see Granada, Masaya Volcano, Laguna Apoyo, Masaya Handcraft market, and more all in ONE DAY. We are grateful to have had Julio and Caleb as our tour guides. They were fluent in English (which was needed because we speak very little Spanish), knowledgeable, easy going, and overall great guys. This was more than a tour and more like a flexible experience in which we could spend more time in the areas that we were most interested in. This day long experience was the perfect ending to our trip in Nicaragua. We will certainly reach out for tours and airport transportation when we are in Nicaragua next. We definitely recommend ShowMeNicaragua tours and specifically, Julio and Caleb.

    What an amazing day!
    Driver and Guide - just for us. Wonderful information and conversation. Even added in a lunch stop at an amazing little roadside restaurant. Delicious and educational.

    The Volcano was amazing! Wonderful to be able to ask a zillion questions and get personalized service!

    Thank you Thank you!

    All day fun
    I had so much fun. It was me and bae and it was great bc it’s a private tour so we could get to know each better with less distractions. Our tour guides were sweet and patient. I love taking pictures so they waited whenever I wanted to stop for photo ops. The chocolate factory was delicious. The lake was beautiful. The town was colorful and the volcano was crazy. Although I thought we would get a closer view like how I’ve heard it described in Hawaii. But I still could see the lava with their provided binoculars and they provided a selfie stick!! I wish I could remember my tour guide name but I a picture of him!

    I used Vapues Travel for a wonderful trip to Nicaragua. I was so impressed with the variety and charm of hotels that were selected, from a former convent to beach-side hotels to the charming Casa Marimba on Laguna de Apoyo to the delightful accommodations on Ometepe.

    The staff at Vapues went above and beyond as travel plans changed and had to be adjusted. The Guides and Drivers were so knowledgeable and helpful as I peppered them with questions. I learned so much about the country’s history.
    Oscar and Juan get high-fives for their kindness and humor to a senior citizen from California.

    I would use Vapues Travel again, without a hesitation.

    Great driver and tour guide. Volcano and museum was pretty cool also.
    Driver and tour guide were great. Joseph, the guide, spoke really good English and was very informative. He was very passionate about the volcano and Nicaragua in general. He made the trip worth it. The price was a little on the high side in my opinion but we booked the same day as the tour. The guide picked us up at our airport which was very convenient also. You only get to see the volcano for about 20 minutes but that is all that is really necessary.

    Worth seeing, look for options
    It’s definitely worth seeing. I would say that there are direct local companies or via your hotel that can book this tour for you at likely a better price and all the cost goes directly to the local operator. I didn’t know this at the time of booking.
