Summary: I went on a halfday tour to the nearby volcano Mombacho. Everything was perfect, starting from the initial communication, to transport and the guiding itself. Leonel is a very knowleadgable, enthusiastic and communicative guide. His english is excellent and even though I didn’t see many animals that day, he gave me lots of insights about the surroundings and history. The view was fantastic, the diversity of the cloud forest was just beautiful. I would definitely book a tour with Leonel an his team again!
