Honduras & Nicaragua

Chimu Adventures’ Honduras tours can take you to a paradise that has only recently started to be explored by foreign visitors. Spanning the width of Central America,Honduras' Caribbean and Pacific coastlines are divided by forested green mountains, hidden in the clouds.

The Bay Islands of Roatan and Utila lie in the Caribbean Sea, just miles off the mainland and are a huge attraction and offer some of the best diving in the region, if not the world.

The Mayan ruins of Copan are considered some of the best-studied and preserved there are, providing a fascinating insight into the Maya civilisation. Also, nestled among the green peeks are the traditional Colonial towns of highland Honduras, where indigenous people make up the majority of the population.

The fast-paced capital city of Tegucigalpa's Colonial centre includes a variety of museums, theatres and commercial districts and is also only a short distance from the Pacific coast, home to wildlife refuges and  National Parks.

Nicaragua is the largest country in Central America. Known as ‘the land of lakes and volcanoes’, a spine of mountains runs along the country’s centre, and two giant lakes, Managua and Nicaragua, define its interior.

This geography means that Nicaragua has plenty to offer in the way of outstanding natural beauty. Visitors can enjoy the laid-back Caribbean islands, coffee-growing highlands around Matagalpa, the spectacular island of Ometepe in Lake Nicaragua, pristine jungle along the San Juan River and isolated Pacific beaches.

Nicaragua’s turbulent history has left a fascinating mark on the country. Any Nicaragua tour will be sure to include time in one or more of the charming Colonial cities, such as Granada or Leon, where the evidence of the Sandinistas’ struggle for power and subsequent governments, is everywhere to behold.

Although tourism is not yet as developed in Nicaragua as in other Central American destinations, a Nicaragua holiday offers the rewards of a beautiful, intriguing country full of friendly people. So get booking today!
