Secrets of the Cloudforest
Granada & Omotepe Island
Discover timeless Granada, one of the oldest cities in Latin America; its cobbled streets and colourful plazas are a delight to explore. You'll head into the surrounding area visiting the folkloric centre of Masaya and the verdant Mombacho Volcano Reserve to admire its outstanding scenery. On Lake Nicaragua you'll stay on Omotepe Island and take the option to climb one of the perfect black volcanic cones.
Forests & Beach
Crossing into Costa Rica you'll hike through the forests of Rincon de la Vieja National Park, abundant in flora and birdlife. Here you can marvel at the bubbling mud holes, hissing rock fields and spurting geysers of this volcanic region. Relax on a Pacific beach before continuing to Monteverde where you follow cloudforest trails searching for the reclusive quetzal and iridescent hummingbirds
