Great experience! Our driver Bernardo and tour guide Eric were fantastic. My review will focus on the logistics. One thing worth knowing: this tour lasts MUCH longer than 9 hours. We were picked up at 5:30am and returned to our hotel at 6:15pm. 90 minutes to the coastal town to get there early enough to board the ferry, then a 1 hour ferry ride. So about half of the duration is spent with those things. Upon landing at Ometepe, we went to a coffee shop for breakfast. We each spent less than $10 USD. Then you see some places, learn things, and go on a hike. Then we went to a restaurant on the beach. After placing an order, we had time to go down and hang out on the beach until we got tired of the sand flies. Got some nice pictures and relaxed. The food here was about $20 USD per entree (tourist prices), give or take a few. You get a LOT of food and they did accept credit cards. Both places we ate had WiFi. Saw a bit more then headed to the ferry.

Such a beautiful island with a wealth of beautiful sites to see. The itinerary states 8 hours but it is actually closer to 12 but that just means you get more time there
