DaMom Posted February 14, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 14, 2019 We're on a Panama Canal cruise in the spring which stops in Nicaragua - the US State Department lists Nicaragua at a level 3 warning (out of 4, 4 being Do Not Travel) - Reconsider Travel to Nicaragua, due to crime, civil unrest, etc. Do we think they'll keep San Juan Del Sur on the itinerary for the forseeable future?

Relaxedfun Posted February 18, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 18, 2019 Was there last week on Coral Princess. Protests in Managua so no excursions there, but had wonderful experiences on a tour to Granada and Las Isletas. Great sightings of rare birds after a ride through the countryside. Local people were welcoming and friendly to us. We glimpsed a beautiful garden through the doorway of a business and a worker invited us in to experience the inner garden. The two of us were walking alone, not with the big group. Enjoy these nice people!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at doing the Masaya Volcano, Grenada tour... but it is like 8 hours! Not sure I want to go that far or be gone all day. There are slightly shorter tours that do not include going to the masaya national park to see the volcano (6 hrs), but still goes to Grenada, lunch, shopping. Debating about just doing a more chill beach day as we have a long tour the day before in Puntarenas. I sometimes get a bit motion sick on really windy roads if I'm in the back of the bus... though can take motion sick meds just in case.. any info would be greatly appreciated. It is nice that we would get priority to get off the ship, hear tendering in this port can take awhile. Thanks, Stacey : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
