点评:My husband and I did a day trip to Nicaragua from Costa Rica. I had found a similar trip for cheaper, but someone at the hotel recommended we spend a little more for this experience. This was excellent advice. They took pictures of our passports to give to Nicaraguan border authorities ahead of time to ensure a seamless border crossing.
Gustavo picked us up at our hotel at 5:15 am as planned in advance. We were in a comfortable van and he drove us to a restaurant for breakfast before crossing the border. The food was excellent. During the drive, he also gave a lot of information about Costa Rica.
When we arrived at the border, he got us through with no hassles and it was fast-maybe 30-40 minutes. Other guests at our hotel told us they went with another tour company who took them on a bus and it took almost 2 1/2 hours for them to cross!
When we got across, we met up with Elvis who gave a lot of information about Nicaragua and took us many places. We went to Playa La Virgin, Lake Nicaragua where we did a boat ride, San Juan Del Sur, Volcan Masaya, Grenada, Catarina and Rivas. We had lunch in a colonial home and the food was excellent. We went on a horse drawn carriage ride, went to a chocolate factory, and saw so much more. We did some shopping as well. It was truly an amazing experience and I highly recommend it.
Crossing back into Costa Rica was seamless and fast again. We were back at our hotel by around 7:30 or 8 pm. On the way back, I asked to stop at a Starbucks and that was no problem either. This is the tour to do if you want to have a well organized day trip to Nicaragua and see as much as possible in one day.
翻译:我和丈夫从哥斯达黎加出发,参加了尼加拉瓜一日游。我之前找到过类似的行程,价格更便宜,但酒店有人建议我们多花点钱体验一下。事实证明,这个建议非常明智。他们提前帮我们拍了护照照片,以便交给尼加拉瓜边境官员,确保顺利过境。
古斯塔沃按照事先约定的时间,早上5点15分到酒店接我们。我们乘坐一辆舒适的面包车,他带我们去一家餐厅吃早餐,然后再过境。早餐非常美味。在路上,他还给我们介绍了很多关于哥斯达黎加的信息。
到达边境后,他帮我们顺利过境,速度很快,大概只用了30-40分钟。我们酒店的其他客人告诉我们,他们参加了另一家旅行社的行程,坐巴士过境,结果花了将近两个半小时!
过境后,我们遇到了埃尔维斯,他给我们介绍了很多关于尼加拉瓜的信息,还带我们去了很多地方。我们去了维珍海滩(Playa La Virgin)、尼加拉瓜湖(在那里乘船游览)、圣胡安德尔苏尔、马萨亚火山、格拉纳达、卡塔琳娜和里瓦斯。我们在一家殖民时期风格的民居里享用了午餐,食物非常美味。我们还乘坐了马车,参观了巧克力工厂,以及许多其他景点。此外,我们还逛了街。这真是一次令人难忘的体验,我强烈推荐。
返回哥斯达黎加的过程同样顺利快捷。我们大约在晚上7:30或8:00回到了酒店。回程途中,我提出想在星巴克稍作停留,他们也欣然同意。如果您想在尼加拉瓜进行一次精心安排的一日游,并尽可能多地游览景点,那么这个行程绝对是您的最佳选择。
