Such a Great Day! - Donald is the man! I am so glad I booked this full day tour of Ometepe. He picked me up from my accomodation at 0830 and then I spent the day on the back of his motorbike touring the cultural and natural highlights of the island ending at Playa Mango fot sunset. For lunch, I had a delicious lunch prepared by his lovely wife and met his adorable kids! For a bonus, he actually attempted (bless him, haha) to teach me how to ride a motorbike. I was hopeless, but it was so fun to try and good idea I hadn't just rented one thinking I could learn on the fly. Anyhow, I actually think it was an amazing deal since I could customize the itinerary and since I had a short time on Ometepe--compared to speaking to others--I did more on my day with him than many do in several days. Wholeheartedly recommend! Muchos Gracias Donald and Happy Tours!

Island Day tour - Highly recommend the day tour of the island. Especially if you don’t want to hike up a volcano. However; Happy Tours does that too. We contacted very last minute and they were able to get a guide to give us the tour of the island. We saw all the spots we wanted to see. Juan was our guide . He speaks English as well and we both got to practice Spanish and English 😉. They were willing to take us wherever we wanted to go. The family cooked lunch was really good too !

Donald is awesome. - Donald went above and beyond my expectations. We went to so many places in one day and he shared so much knowledge about history, culture, nature and how indigenous people use plants for medicine. His wife cooked me lunch, I went swimming I'm ojo de aqua and saw the sunset at Mango Beach, got an archeology lesson at Ceite Museum. Went to punta Jesus Maria, fed white faced Monkeys and hiked.

Great tour at Ometepe! - Ometepe was beautiful! Donald was our tour guide and he was amazing from the moment he picked us up from the ferry to the second he dropped us off at our hotel. The tour was all day and one thing I recommend is taking the first ferry of the day to maximize your day. He will do the tour in either spanish or english which was super helpful with my teen niece. You don’t have to worry about lunch since he has it covered! It was delicious and needed after a long morning! Our group definitely wished we had an extra day to hike up Volcan Concepcion…for our visit to Ometepe! One of my favorite parts of the day was Ojo de Agua, it was beautiful and super refreshing! Donald was reliable, picked us up on time and communicated with us prior to our scheduled tour via WhatsApp. He provided us with dinner recommendations and even help coordinate our transportation back to the ferry when needed. You won’t regret booking with Happy Tours Ometepe.

Brilliant Tour!!! - Fantastic tour with Donald from Happy Tours Ometepe. Donald was great and the tour included so many great options including our transportation around the island from the moment we arrived. Highlights included the afternoon at Mango Beach and the incredible views of Volcano Conception; the cultural dinner with a local family; and the Ojo De Aqua natural spring pool which was so beautiful and with cool water that was so crystal clear. If you are looking for a great tour on Ometepe then definitely look at Happy Tours!!
