Known as the land of lakes and volcanoes, Nicaragua is one of Central America’s most exciting travel destinations.

Largely undiscovered and unspoilt, a holiday to Nicaragua combines charming colonial cities with majestic volcanoes, great hiking, beautiful beaches and lush rainforests.

The colonial city of Granada, Lake Nicaragua and Ometepe Island, the Pacific Coast, Little Corn Island on the Caribbean side or Matagalpa up in the highlands are amongst the highlights of a tour of Nicaragua.

Far less undeveloped than neighbouring Costa Rica, Nicaragua is one of Central America’s most affordable and intriguing countries to visit.

A holiday to Nicaragua can also easily be combined with nearby countries including Costa Rica, Honduras or Guatemala to make an adventurous holiday to Central America.
