Sliding Cerró Negro Awesomeness

5.00This experience was exceptional from beginning to end. Our driver Anthony gave us the local tour, he was friendly and knowledgeable about his culture. We explored the town of Leon and its history. Then we gathered with Junior and Martin who took us on an adventure of a lifetime at Cerro Negro. They were so friendly and eager to tell us about the history of the town and the volcanoes nearby. We always felt safe and provided clear guidance and instructions. Cerro Negro is a beautiful place and highly recommended.
Exciting adventure

5.00Above and beyond, we came for only two days to Nicaragua, and the main reason was to sandboard in Cerro Negro. Im so happy we chose this company, our guide Anthony is the most amazing person! All of them are. I can’t recommend this experience enough.

Volcano Sledding Adventure!
Antonio C,Oct 19, 2025
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00The tour was amazing! I had so much fun! Anthony was very informative, friendly and helpful when I had any questions! Jr. was also very helpful and fun during the sledding part of the trip! Everyone I was in contact with from booking all the way to the end of my adventure was very communicative and friendly! The hike up the volcano wasn’t super difficult but walking uphill in any aspect can be strenuous so make sure you eat breakfast and drink enough water! I am so happy with my experience! Thank you!

Fantastic day tour and unique by all terms

5.00I had a fantastic daytrip with Nicol and Mary, and one fellow-traveler, Pedro, from Dominican Rep., and a girl from Peru (who joined us for the volcano part). It was a long way to Leon, but it spent great, as we had a good chat all way long! First we stopped at a scenic mirador to check out Lake Managua and the 2 volcanos next by. Great views! Then had a city tour, visited the big cathedral. It was apparently the great celebration inside, of Mary. So we heard bells all around while visited the top for the views, and heard lots of fireworks too, all around. Not long after we went to a kind of modern arts museum, then for a little shopping to have more energy for the hike. After that we met the Team of volcano boarding, led by Junior. He was full of smile, but still very responsible and caring. Traveled with them and our fantastic 4x4 driver to the 'door' of Cerro Negro, where we got ourselves registered* and had chance to visit toilets too. *I received (maybe by mistake, maybe by fun) a 'National' paper bracelet for the entry, not foreigner. We made a lot of fun because of this too, so it was not a mistake that Nicol always talked to me also in Spanish! The way up was not that easy, but still doable! We made stops and photo opp. frequently and there was no rush. We had a bit of quiz too with Junior about volcanos, and I think I won that! Hahaha. Up there we had strong wind, so sometimes we went like hand into hand! We made it to the top, then after some instructions and waiting we all sled down. I tried to be superfast, and I think I was! It really felt like skiing in that position too. Then we went to a local restaurant, so had a real local vibe for the end too, as a crown for this excellent day! Also to mention, the day after I had a cool visit in the morning to the Masaya volcano too, with this same organization!
