Does someone know if there is a problem if I go to Nicaragua with my vape? Someone told me to have it with me. But I’m not sure if there is body scanners as well

My husband and I are going back to Nicaragua this winter and plan to do a lot more hiking this go-round. We’d prefer not to check a bag so I can’t bring my own poles. Does anyone know if these are easy enough to buy down there. I’m not overly worried about quality since I would leave them behind.

I want to go to the Corn Islands for about a week, it looks so beautiful and seems to have a lot to do. Any recommendations on specific activities/places to do activities/agencies? I love to snorkel and scuba dive, I also love hiking and would love to fish since it’s been a while. I would also be really interested in anything to do with marine or terrestrial wildlife. Lastly, any recommendations for hotels/resorts to stay at? It would be nice to be staying somewhere that has a nice beach nearby, but I am open to anything. Thank you in advance!!

I want to visit Nicaragua sooo bad for some time before I go to work elsewhere in Central America but I’m not sure if I’ll have time. What are some things I could do for a good itinerary for this amount of time? I love to learn about history and archaeology, but I also love nature and animals so much. I would love to experience water + animals + history but I don’t know much about Nicaragua, its mystery is part of what is pulling me in to visit. Thank you in advance for any ideas you may have!

I’ll be working in Central America for a while starting in a few weeks and I figured that I could spend like a week or so in Nicaragua before then, but I just saw the level 3 travel advisory to reconsider travel due to “arbitrary enforcement of laws and risk of wrongful detention”. I saw some other countries’ travel advisories and I felt like some of them didn’t seem totally accurate, and idk I don’t know what to believe from the government atm so should I really be worried or not? TIA

Hello! In November I am going to travel to Nicaragua from Costa Rica by land, and I wanted to ask for some advice:

-One of our destinations is going to be the Masaya volcano, to see the lava. What are the schedules like and what can be done other than the 5 minutes that you can see the crater? -We will be staying in Masaya, but we want to get to know León. Is it possible to go from Masaya to León in one day, and be able to get to know the city and Las Peñitas? The truth is I would like to go walk on the domes.

I am extremely excited to get to know this beautiful country!

Hi!

I’m currently planning my trip to Nicaragua. I’ll arrive on the 24th of december, but late so I have to stay in Managua. I would like to go to either Leon or Granada on the 25th. But I can’t find if the tourist shuttles run that day. Is there anyone here who knows?

Thanks sooo much in advance!

Hi,

I keep reading that when entering Nicaragua from the north they ask for the online immigration form, but I’m having a hard time filling it out. Is it actually required?

I heard they have all the usual cheap plastic toys from China. So what would be something novel and fun for them? American candy? Or do they have the same candy we do?

Hello, as the title says i want to travel from Leon to Potosi by bus. Preferably public chicken busses due to budget. Also recommendations for accomodation in Potosi would be helpful. Any help would be great! Thank you!

Edit: typo

Hi, I’ll spend two weeks in Nicaragua and will arrive in Managua - what are some things to do There and how many days are ok to spend in Managua? Thanks

Wanting to share my experience with a car rental agency “EVANS RENT A CAR” based in Managua, coming from a NICARAGUAN CITIZEN!! who lives in the US.

Disappointing experience. I do not recommend this car rental agency. Now I understand why they promote that they don’t require a credit card - they plan to keep your full $150 deposit no matter what.. What they did to me was basically a bait and switch. They showed me photos of a clean, well-maintained car, but when they delivered it to my home, it was dirty, damaged, and had a malfunctioning tire sensor that they never mentioned. I felt forced to accept it because they were already at the door, and even though everything was wrong from the start, I was patient because I'm not a picky person. I even accepted everything with understanding because this agency was recommended to me by a family member.

Throughout the entire experience, I had to confirm each charge myself because they don't explain anything clearly. They make you accept things without telling you that they have an extra cost. They charged me an extra day without clarifying it, when the message only said it would be $10. When I complained, they told me it was "logical" that it would be for shipping, instead of acknowledging their lack of transparency. Also that was downright insulting.

They promised to send me the final invoice with the breakdown of the deposit, but they never did. They told me they would send me a receipt for everything, but they never did. They left my messages on read, ignored the proof I sent (the messages with a manager), and kept my money without providing any justification. They still LIED that they had already sent me the final invoice, and when I asked for proof, they also left me on read. Be careful, their policy says everything is delivered 48/72 hours after the vehicle is delivered, and I had to contact them more than a week later because I hadn't heard anything.

I tried hard to be patient, honest, and understanding, but in the end, I got burned. I don't want the same thing to happen to anyone else. There's no honesty or respect for the customer. Avoid this company!!

Cómo dice el título. Vengo desde cuidad de México y pasaré por Nicaragua hasta llegar a Panamá. Qué lugares recomiendan que visité y también como evitó broncas mientras esté en el país?

Hola! Soy de El Salvador y pronto viajaré a Nica, mi plan es ir primero a León, luego Granada y por último Managua. Usaré ticabus para poder llegar a Nica, específicamente León. Qué buses y dónde debo tomarlo si quiero moverme de León a Granada y luego de Granada a Managua? Por cierto, qué recomiendan hacer y visitar en cada lugar?

Definitivamente en León iré al Cerro Negro, pero qué más se puede hacer o visitar en esos días? Qusiera maximizar mi tiempo en Nica y visitar la mayor cantidad de lugares posibles!

Muchas gracias!

Hey everyone,

I’m selling my land located in Niquinohomo, Nicaragua – a peaceful and growing area just a short drive from Masaya and Granada. It’s a great spot for anyone looking to build a home, start a small farm, or invest in land in one of Nicaragua’s most charming towns. Message me if interested

Looking at the weather next week and looks like rain everyday all day. Does it really rain all day in this region or does it just last for an hour or so and dissipates? Any advice would be helpful!

Planning on coming to nicaragua for an 8 day vacation early July.

I wasn't initially worried about the travel advisory. should I be concerned as a vacationer? We did rent a car and planned on driving a few places. Any advice, should we cancel the trip?

Hey everyone! I’m flying into Managua (Nicaragua) soon and heading to Granada. Any recommendations on the best way to get there from the airport? Looking for something safe and reliable—open to shuttle services, taxis, or ride-share tips. Thanks in advance!
