In evidenza
Some tours show you Nicaragua. On this one, you make it with your own hands. Your day begins at Zanganito, a small family-run honey farm, where your private host suits you up in full protective gear before you walk among European honeybees and rare native stingless bees, cut fresh honeycomb, and bottle your own honey to take home. From there, you sit at the wheel with Valentin Lopez, whose family workshop has preserved San Juan de Oriente's ancestral ceramic tradition for 20+ years and welcomed tour operators from around the world - shaping clay and joining the marimba-accompanied mud-dancing tradition before touring his kiln. The afternoon unfolds at a family-run chicheria, where Dona Lona pours her own Chicha Bruja, a corn recipe inherited from her ancestors, as you take in the panoramic view over Apoyo Lagoon, before a final stop among vivid sunflower fields. One private, hands-on day in Nicaragua's artisan heartland - zero hidden costs, zero shared shuttles.

About Managua
Managua, capital of Nicaragua, lies on the south shore of Lake Managua, with crater lakes, a ruined cathedral and the Masaya volcano close by.
Managua spreads along the south shore of Lake Managua, below a line of volcanic hills, in the Pacific lowlands of Nicaragua. Earthquakes in 1931 and 1972 damaged the old centre, and the shell of the old cathedral still stands near the lakefront, beside the National Palace, which now houses a museum. The modern Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, topped with many small domes, stands nearby.
Top-ranked sights in Managua: Masaya Volcano, Tiscapa Lagoon Natural Reserve (Reserva Natural Laguna de Tiscapa), Old Cathedral of Managua (Antigua Catedral de Managua).
