Great experience in Nicaragua with Danny’s tours - We used Danny’s tours several times over 2 weeks. He was on time, a great communicator and very knowledgeable. Each time we had a fantastic time. He is able to... read more work with you to design itineraries that meet your needs.
All around amazing service - I highly recommend Danny for tours, private transportation and advice on where to go and what to check out. He is a great person. Super reliable and fun to... read more talk to. We for sure plan to call him when we go back.
So glad I stumbled upon Danny’s Tours in one of the blogs I was reading before our trip to Nicaragua. I reached out via WhatsApp and Danny was super responsive.... read more He curated my tentative itinerary to our group (1 adult + 2 kids: 2yo and 5yo) with some things I didn’t even know about when researching Granada area (a chocolate factory - super fun for kids). Manuel, the tour guide, was so accommodating and super nice. Kids wanted to buy something to feed the monkeys - he got fruit. We wanted to stop by a small market on the way bc kids wanted bananas - he got them. His knowledge of the language (both Spanish and English), the city, culture and tender heart made it for a great experience. He helped me order Vigorón with pork vs pork skin (bougie - I know), knew the monkeys by their names and pointed to the best spots to take pictures and offered to take pictures of us. Great day, great experience and definitely recommend!
