Nicaragua: A comprehensive guide

Available for hire
During a three month trip exploring Central America, I spent a glorious chunk in the beautiful yet incredibly underrated Nicaragua. This guide highlights all the best bits of this beautiful country's culture; its attractions, cuisine, history and people.
The itinerary covers a number of locations and therefore recommend allocating at least 10-14 days to enjoy at leisure. If you have less to work with, then obviously feel free to tailor as it suits.

Day 1-5: Managua (+nearby)
Parque Acuáticox
@deleteduser1180
Technically a water park equipped with a kids playground, restaurant but also home to the city's promenade, offering a welcoming respite on a summer's day. Once done, you can take a stroll along the colourful tree sculptures ('Árboles de la Vida') on Avenida Bolivar.

Plaza Nicaragua

Adjacent to the Parque Acuaticox, this avenue is lined with colourful tree structures that are stunning in the early evening / night.

DeLaFinca Coffee • Metrocentro
@deleteduser1180
You can't visit one of the world's finest coffee producing regions and not sample the coffee. DelaFinca - Nicaragua's answer to an upmarket Starbucks - serves a number of coffee and food options as well as catering for the lactose intolerant amongst us. Highly recommend!

León, Nicaragua
@deleteduser1180
One of the two well known colonial towns; Leon has at you might expect lots of gorgeous architecture, modern cafes (including a great almond cafe latte!) and a previous home of a number of famous Nicaraguan poets. A great day out from Managua.

Esteli
@deleteduser1180
Home to cigars and a great steak, Esteli is a lovely little town just north of the capital. You'll pass a number of overflowing fresh organic produce stalls dotted across the city.

Apoyo Lagoon
@deleteduser1180
The lake has a number of small scale resorts on one side where you can grab a drink, some lunch or spend a few days whilst dipping in and out of the fresh water lagoon. A welcome respite on a hot day.
Be also sure to check out the nearby pretty town of Santa Catarina where you can grab a souvenir handmade by a local artisan.
