Granada
No visit to Granada is complete without exploring the city's historic center on foot and in a classic horse-drawn carriage. On this tour, you discover key sites including the San Francisco Convent, founded in 1529, and La Merced church where you can climb the bell tower and enjoy spectacular views over the city, Lake Nicaragua, and Mombacho volcano. The last stop is the oldest sector of the town, the area around the Xalteva church and the old city walls

Enjoyed the horse-drawn carriage ride. Oscar was knowledgable and the tour was well paced. The views from the bell tower were spectacular.

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!
