Your Nicaragua Holiday Itinerary
Day 1-2: Most people arrive at Augusto Cesar Sandino International Airport in the national capital, Managua. Once you’ve settled into your hotel, spend a day or two exploring the city. Check out well-known sights like Old Cathedral, National Palace of Culture and the ruins of the former Somoza Presidential House.
Day 3-5: Hop in your rental car and take a road trip around the country’s north. Known for its tobacco production, Estli is also a great base from which to explore the Cliff Carvings of El Tisey, or go volcano boarding on Cerro Negro.
Day 6-7: Be sure to stop by Granada. With a vast history of indigenous civilization, Spanish colonisation and piracy, yet a young, creative culture, travellers adore its unique, sophisticated vibe. Soak up the spectacular views from La Merced Church’s bell tower while you’re in town.
