This Nicaragua photography tour runs from the colonial cities of the Pacific side to the cigar and coffee country of the northern highlands.

We start in Granada, with its painted streets, its yellow cathedral, and a sunset boat ride through Las Isletas on Lake Nicaragua. On the way to León, we stop in the Pueblos Blancos, small towns known for their potters, their furniture makers, and, in Diriomo, their witches. León gives us a white cathedral roof to walk across, a busy central market, and walls covered in murals.

After two nights on the beach at Las Peñitas, we head north into the hills: cigar rollers and tobacco farms in Estelí, then coffee, cacao, and a women’s weaving collective around Matagalpa. We finish near Masaya, close to the volcano and the artisan market.

Join our Nicaragua photo tour: fourteen days, six towns, and plenty of time with the people who live and work there.
