This review is from: Adventures in Nicaragua (DVD)

I was a little nervous ordering this product after reading the reviews by people that waited a month or more to get the DVD. They apparently solved the problem because I got mine in about 3 days. It was shipped from the USA, not Nicaragua.

As far as the product goes, it was better than I expected. I thought it would be very kid oriented but I watched it through and aside from a few awkward moments, it is a very good overview of Nicaragua.

My favorite scene: the female teenage host sitting poolside drinking what looks to be a glass of wine. I'm not sure what the drinking age is in Nicaragua.

This review is from: Adventures in Nicaragua (DVD)

This video is very well done. The best one I've seen done about Nicaragua. It does an excellent job in showing Nicaragua's colonial and geographical history. It also shows and teaches you some of the country's ecological and environmental attractions. I highly recommend this for anyone who has never visited Nicaragua or for those who are planing to make a trip down there to check it out. I hope they do a part 2 soon.
