Nicaragua & Beyond
Naveena · Traveled February 2024
Nicaragua and beyond with Intrepid was an awesome experience. Even the difficult land border crossings were made bearable with our excellent tour leader Juan Guido preparing us well ahead of time. Central American culture, its rich history and the very friendly people only added to this trip’s positive vibes. We made amazing long lasting friendships as well. All in all our first Intrwpid journey is surely not going to be our last. Here’s to more traveling with intrepid travels then ♥️

Amazing overview of four countries! Great mix of cultural, historical and physical activities. Juan, our guide, was incredible! Be prepared for lots of time in the bus though -- it's not easy to cover four countries in 10 days. Also, I'd advise adding on at least an extra night in both Granada & Antigua, as you don't really get to see much of them on the trip itself.

Overall the trip was very good. Our guide, Ray, did an excellent job especially for someone who had never been to 3 of the 4 countries. I have two tips for people taking this tour. Do not participate in the horseback riding in Copan. If you want to go horseback riding do it somewhere else. It was not safe. The optional hot springs in Copan are over an hour away from the hotel. The local guide made it seem like they were 5 minutes away.

Our tour guide, Ray, did an amazing job navigating the border crossings, and explaining the history and activity options for each country. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to see the highlights and experience the culture of these 4 countries. There were plenty of activity options to choose from, and also the freedom to do your own thing. I felt safe during the entire trip and would definitely do another tour with Intrepid based on my experience. Thank you Ray for a great adventure!

Way too much ground transportation and border crossing. Guide was not from any country we visited so couldn't give us any information. Very little included and trips expensive.
