Explore the largest volcanic island in the world, spot congo monkeys, and learn about Nicaragua's history on this excursion to the freshwater island of Ometepe!

Description

At 8 am, we will pick you up in Managua and embark on a 2-hour minibus journey to San Jorge, where we will catch a ferry to the freshwater island of Ometepe. Prepare to see the vastness of Lake Nicaragua.

Upon arrival, we will venture to the Chaco Verde Nature Reserve, known for its diverse fauna and flora, including the lively congo monkeys. We will explore the natural beauty of this reserve until around 1 pm, when we will provide some free time for lunch at one of the park's restaurants.

Afterward, we will visit the Ojo de Agua pools, where you can enjoy a swim in volcanic waters. We will also have the opportunity to explore the impressive collection of pre-Columbian artifacts at the El Ceibo Museum.
