10/10 must do Isletas/Granda City tour

Raquel_T, Apr 2024

Had a great time with Maynor our guide. He spoke almost perfect English, as well as Spanish. The Isletas boat tour was so relaxing, and honestly so so beautiful. It's an absolute must while in Granda. Maynor was very knowledgable about the wild life and history of the volcano, islands etc. The city tour came 2nd and we were taken from place to place via air-conditioned car. We did another tour in Leon and it was walking, nice....but very very hot outside. This was a nice surprise. Again Maynor knew so much history about Granada it really made our trip. Finally, the chocolate museum was so much fun. He does go to several, we went to the bate bate chocolate factory. The owner was so energetic, hilarious and interactive. Samples are given, all delicious. It made it very hard to not buy everything in the store. 10/10 would recommend this tour! Talk to your guides, get to know them, and tip these people what they deserve.

Thank you for choosing us!

Best tour ever!

This was an absolutely incredible tour! We saw almost everything in a single day! The boat tour of Las Isletas was very special and the city tour covered the entire town. The tour was so good we ended up booking another tour to go see the Messiah volcano later that night. Moises (our guide/host) was great at communication and helped us with several other things during our trip. 10/10 would recommend! 👍🏼🇳🇮😁
