“Marjorie“
“One of the best trips I have taken because it combined my favourite things – making music, spending time on the ocean, and mingling with the locals.”
“Mary”
“People are friendly and welcoming and it is not overrun by tourists — you get to see how people live in Nicaragua.”
“Michael”
“Interacting with Coro Laudate was the highlight of the trip for me.”
