In March, Roadmonkey returns to the land of Rubén Darío, one of Latin America’s most revered poets, to explore & hike two spectacular volcanoes - one of them still quite active - and then build a kitchen for a school in the northern highlands near Honduras.

Our expeditions are more than mere guided tours. We allow serendipity and spontaneity into the schedule. We bring a small group of thoughtful, like-minded adventurers together. If you want an international experience that you’ll remember for years to come, keep reading.

Itinerary

expedition route & itinerary

Our adventure begins in the colonial city of Grenada, about 1 hour south of Managua, and takes you to a volcanic lake for a swim and lunch en route to the Isla de Ometepe: the island in the middle of Lake Nicaragua from which rise the twin volcanoes, one dormant, one still active. For four days, we’ll explore the volcanoes and the island they form. Then we’ll drive north to complete our 3-day kitchen-building project with our nonprofit partner, Fabretto Foundation.

your volunteer project

In partnership with the Fabretto Foundation, the Roadmonkey team will work with a local community to restore a community kitchen. The school relies on the kitchen to supply the much needed Fabretto school lunch program.


what's included in this expedition?
The price for this Nicaragua adventure philanthropy expedition includes full lodging, ground transport, equipment rentals and most meals, save for one or two taken during your free time.

It also includes the planning and development of a hands-on volunteer project that you and your expedition members will complete in three days. International flights and tipping are not included in this price.

The expedition begins on Saturday, March 3, when we meet you at the airport in Managua, and concludes the following Sunday, March 11, with an optional drop-off back at the airport.



lodging & food
Lodging is at superior hotels, inns or guest houses whenever available. During the volunteer project, you'll be in a comfortable lodging near the village where we'll be working.

Food in Nicaragua is classically Central American: plenty of rice, beans, tortillas, tomatoes, meat and fish and an abundance of fresh fruits and vegetables; seafood by the coast is deliciously plentiful. Vegetarians are well served almost anywhere.


your arrival & departure

Expedition members should plan to arrive in Managua no later than 3:00pm on Saturday, March 4 for personal pick up, and depart from Managua beginning on Sunday, March 11.
