There is a zoo located between Managaua and Masaya. One person I was with wanted to go to the zoo to see the types of resident animals the call Nicaragua home. Seemed like a good Idea. It was nice to see the different animals. While the zoo was spread out, the confinments for the animals were small. A few of the animals looked sick.
Not something I would support.
If you go to the zoo, it is best to look at it as a learning experience to see the animals. It also provides jobs (at the animal's expense) in a country that is poor. Leave a Comment

Managua navigation,this one can not be avoided by the majority of firsttime visitors I'm afraid to say so. You even fail to tell whether you're taken for a ride or not as you sit in the cab. Lack of landmarks! I arrived at 22.30 at the airport and had to get through town to the other side. I felt lucky I was able to pay what was asked in USD and not in local currency which would have made it even worse. Leave a Comment

You should make up your mind, before donating money to kids. We've made the experience in Nicaragua, that one boy really became aggressive, when we didn't give him money. Three other kids looked poor, we gave them some coins so they could buy somethng to eat ...well, I must admit now, they used the money to drive with some motorcycles in the nearby amusement park (well, I don't mind them, they're kids...and kids want to have fun). Just to show you, that many already know that it's simple to get money from tourists... Leave a Comment

 Backpackers in Granada,
Nicaragua by BorderHopper
First of all this tip is in no way meant to dissuade anyone from going to Granada...that would be foolish. If hanging out with backpackers isn't your thing then avoid the typical hostels and cheap hotels that cater to them. Leave a Comment
