All along the river we can expect to see hundreds of different bird species like: Chestnut Toucans, Harpy Eagles, Boat-billed herons, Great Egrets, Jacanas and Cormorants. As well as other species such as caimans (crocodile), turtles, monkeys, red arrow frogs.<\/p>\n<p>After travelling the Rio, we will head North to the gorgeous colonial city of <a title=\"Granada, Nicaragua\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Granada,_Nicaragua\">Granada<\/a> and then morph into beach bums for our last week, and enjoy the sun and surf of <a title=\"San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/San_juan_del_sur\">San Juan del Sur<\/a>.
