About this activity
After pick up at your hotel by air-conditioned transportation you first travel for about 2 hours to arrive to Los Chiles where you have a coffee break. Afterwards you go to Las Tablillas which is the border crossing with Nicaragua at about 20 minutes from Los Chiles. Before going to Las Tablillas you first stop at a small office in Los Chiles to pay the exit taxes. Once you arrive at Las Tablillas you complete the border formalities at the Costa Rican side of the border after that you walk across to the Nicaraguan side of the border, a short walk of 500 feet (150 meters). Here your guide waits for you to assist you with the immigration process. Your guide accompanies you to the air-conditioned transportation that takes you to San Carlos (Nicaragua). Here you have lunch. After lunch your guide takes you for a city walk where you visit the local market, a nice viewpoint and some historical buildings. Afterwards your guide takes you to the dock where you board the boat to Solentiname, the boat ride takes 1 hour on Lake Nicaragua, the biggest freshwater lake in Central-America.
