We had an amazing tour with Julio, he gave us such clear and interesting history of Leon as well as the entire history of Nicaragua! It was so informative and fun. You can hire him to take you all over the country......I look forward to spending more time in his company! More

My family was in Leon trying to go to Cerro Negro for a volcano boarding trip. We were only there for three days and it seemed that the larger foreign owned tour companies were booked. One of them called Julio for us and we lucked out. Julio picked us up in his 4x4 and went that day. It was a... More

I spent an entire day with Julio touring the city of Leon and had an amazing experience. Julio is reliable, knowledgeable, honest, and engaging. He was very invested in making sure I got the experience I was expecting. If you are looking for a reputable tour guide that is worth every penny, look no further. More

Had a tour of the city from Julio himself, who gave both the history of Leon and also his own personal story interwoven. He knows his city well! Also set up a great weekend excursion for us to Masaya and Granada. Would highly recommend him for both large and small groups. More

Julio Tours gave us a great day with a quality tour guide. We opted out of the ship's tour and arranged this day online after reading other reviews. Miguel was informative, entertaining, and flexible. The school stop with dancers was really a personal touch, and we got a 'personalized' tour with our guide. I would recommend spending a day with...

On our second day in Nicaragua we took a tour through Leon with Julio. I seem to remember he had just started doing tours. We could not have had a better introduction. Two years and many history lessons later, I re-visited Leon, remembering that first tour. I'm so happy to read that Julio is still doing his work. I would... More

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed Julio's private 4-hour historic tour of Leon. We have been lucky to have several great local tour guides in Nicaragua, and Julio was as good as any we've had. We were already vaguely familiar with the events in Nicaragua in the 20th century, but Julio really brought it to life - literally, as the... More

I booked Julio initially for two days - and we lost one due to traffic delays getting into the city. He MORE than made up for it the next day as he took us to Cerro Negro to surf the volcano. Although it's not what he usually does, he took the time to hike up with us, act as photographer... More

A friend and I took a three hour historical tour with Julio through Leon, and we loved it--he told us great stories about his own experiences in the revolution and the war as well as lots of interesting information about the history of Leon and Nicaragua in general. We went to some excellent museums and saw lots of murals and... More
