What To Expect

Granada

Granada is one of the oldest and most iconic colonial cities in Latin America, founded in 1524 on the shores of the Great Lake of Nicaragua. On this tour, travelers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in its history, architecture, and cultural life. We will visit the impressive Granada Cathedral, with its distinctive red dome and neoclassical façade, located in front of the central park. From there, we’ll walk along cobblestone streets lined with colorful houses and historic buildings until we reach La Calzada, one of the city’s most vibrant avenues, filled with restaurants, art, and live music. We’ll also explore other colonial churches such as La Merced or Xalteva, depending on the group’s pace, while learning about the historical events that shaped the city from the colonial era to the resistance against pirate invasions. Granada is perfect for photos, a lively atmosphere, and experiencing the essence of colonial Nicaragua.

Isletas de Granada

From the historic Granada Port, you’ll begin a boat ride on the majestic Lake Nicaragua, the largest lake in Central America. During the journey, you’ll navigate among the famous islets — small volcanic formations covered with lush vegetation, home to birds, monkeys, and in some cases, local families living in lakeside houses. This ride offers a peaceful and picturesque experience, perfect for taking photos, observing nature, and learning about the history of the lake and its 300+ islets. You’ll also make a brief scenic stop at San Pablo Port, where you can enjoy stunning views of the lake and the Mombacho Volcano.
