Taxi
Taxis in Nicaragua will usually take an out-of-town trip for a fare agreed before you get in. Agree the price, the number of people and whether bags cost extra first, and prefer a taxi called by your hotel.
Driving time is an estimate from the road distance and surface. Traffic in Managua, weather and stops change it; your driver confirms it.
