Enchanted by nicaragua - Eduardo aka Eddie was wonderful! The transfer from costa rica to nicaragua was super smooth. Then as we were driven in a very nice van, Eddie showed us a map on his computer of everything we will see and do and all about the geography of this part of nicaragua. this tour was one of the best parts of the trip. We ate a great breakfast served by a family. Then the volcano which was explained really well by Eddie. Then the horse and carriage ride thru Granada with a history lesson during the ride, then a chocolate tour/ education. Then a great lunch and followed by a boat tour of the lake seeing some beautiful houses and seeing wild monkeys was incredible. the people of nicaragua were so kind
