Manuel was our tour guide who also spoke English and was very knowledgeable. We did the lava night tour which is great if you are uncomfortable driving in Nicaragua at night. Danny was also able to arrange a custom horseback riding tour, which was not available on his site. We took a boat ride to a farm, learned about cacao processing and visited Hot Springs by horseback. My horse loving dtr was in heaven. The horseback riding tour today was spectacular and well coordinated among many people. So if you want to do something special don’t hesitate to reach out to Danny and he can arrange something for you.
