Enjoyed the horse-drawn carriage ride. Oscar was knowledgable and the tour was well paced. The views from the bell tower were spectacular.
Hi Brian, Thanks for letting us know about the enjoyable trip you had with Oscar and the great time you had in Granada. All the best, Sandra
We started the tour with a horse carriage ride to the old train station to see an old locomotive. Then the carriage took us to a few other parts of the city, including the old Spanish fort, a cemetery, a couple of churches, finally bringing us to the San Francisco Convent Museum. The highlights of the trip included climbing a bell tower with a great view of the city, and the museum - lots of history across many different exhibits.
I spent 3-4 days with Gustavo Guevara, a National Tour Guide for Nicaragua. He was INCREDIBLE!!! Extremely knowledgeable about Granada, Managua, Lake Nicaragua, Masaya & Mombacho, Nicaraguan history, and more! He speaks excellent English and held my hand thru many steps of my trip. He communicates VERY well on WhatsApp. I recommend using him whenever you come to Nicaragua. I wish I could give him 6 stars!
Dear James, thank you so much for your kind words and 6-star feedback on your Private Nicaragua Tour! We are very happy to learn that our guide Gustavo has proven to be a perfect match, but to be honest we wouldn't have expected otherwise. I am glad we were able to make traveling easy for you, and that the provided services were up to standard. Thanks again for your kind words and wonderful feedback.
