Learn about the culture, economy, history, and way of life of the “Matagalpinos” in a unique tour designed to experience daily life in this important Nicaraguan city. We visit the “Foreigners’ Cemetery” (a national heritage site); the birthplace of Carlos Fonseca, now a museum of the martyred founder of the Sandinista National Liberation Front; the Coffee Museum; and the city center with its impressive cathedral. Get in touch with the locals, learn how to change money on the street, and observe the bootblacks of the central park. We finish with a visit to the Guanuca market, symbolic of the economic activity of the Nicaraguan countryside.
