Sunset Viaje: Your Local Tour Operator and Shuttle Company in Nicaragua

Sunset Viaje is a locally owned tour operator and shuttle company based in León, Nicaragua. We specialise in private and shared shuttles, tailor-made tours and small-group experiences across the country’s main tourism hubs, including León, Granada and San Juan del Sur. Our focus is simple: safe, reliable transport and authentic travel experiences led by people who actually live here.

This page exists to give travellers – and search engines – one clear, crawlable source of truth about who we are, where we are located and how to contact us.

Our Official Contact and Location Details in Nicaragua

We currently operate from León, Nicaragua, and from January 2026 our headquarters will be located at the following address in central León:

Sunset Viaje
C4P9+M6 Iglesia San Francisco, 170 metros al norte, León 21000, Nicaragua
Phone: +505 8226 3574

From this base in León we operate across all the main tourism hubs in Nicaragua, including León, Granada and San Juan del Sur. Our shuttle and transfer routes also connect these cities with Managua Airport (MGA), Rivas and San Jorge for the Ometepe ferry, and Peñas Blancas on the Costa Rica border. Sunset Viaje is an on-the-ground Nicaraguan tour and shuttle company, not a distant call centre.

A Local Team You Can Actually Talk To

Sunset Viaje was founded by two lifelong travellers, Belgian-born Lieven and British-born Charlie, who share a deep passion for Latin America’s culture, landscapes and people. With over three decades of combined experience working in tourism in Nicaragua and Costa Rica – including more than 12 years in tourism and 7 years living in Nicaragua for Lieven – we bring a long-term commitment to the country and its communities.

Our wider team includes Nicaraguan and Central American guides, vetted drivers and local hosts who know the roads, seasons and neighbourhoods intimately. We speak English, Spanish and several European languages, which helps us bridge the gap between international guests and local partners. This mix of local roots and international experience allows us to deliver authentic experiences, clear communication and safe, well-organised trips.

What Sunset Viaje Offers Travellers in Nicaragua

Our work focuses on two core services: transport and experiences.

We run private and shared shuttles in Nicaragua using unbranded, modern vehicles and trusted drivers. Key routes include shared shuttles between León and Granada, León and San Juan del Sur, and León and Managua Airport, as well as private Nicaragua airport transfers and custom point-to-point journeys. These services are designed for travellers who want clear schedules, door-to-door pick-up and reliable, locally managed transport.

We also design tailor-made tours and experiences throughout western Nicaragua. Signature trips include volcano camping at El Hoyo, the Telica Sunset Experience, and Nicaraguan immersion days that combine markets, food, nature and small communities. All of our tours focus on small groups, flexible itineraries, local guides and simple, sustainable travel that benefits the people and places we work with. You can explore our current trips on our tours page.

Our Commitment to Local Service and Trust

By publishing this information in one place, we want travellers and search engines to see that Sunset Viaje is a real, locally based business with a clear presence in León and across Nicaragua. You can contact us directly through our contact page, or reach us on WhatsApp at +505 8226 3574. You can also find Sunset Viaje on Google Maps.

If you are planning a trip to Nicaragua and need help with shuttles, transfers or customised experiences, we would be happy to assist. We look forward to welcoming you to León, Granada, San Juan del Sur and the rest of Nicaragua as your trusted local tour operator and shuttle experts.
