Visiting A Teak Plantation<\/h3>\n

So where do you go from here? You\u2019re interested, but what\u2019s the next step? Well, how about visiting a teak plantation! Touring a teak plantation can be a great way to further your knowledge of teak. You will get to see the teak trees, or perhaps even teak saplings depending on the tour you choose, up close and personal. You will get to learn more about the many amazing qualities of this tree and will get to ask any questions you may have.<\/p>\n

You\u2019ll also get to meet others like yourself who are interested in this amazing tree. Oh, and did I forget to mention that going on a teak plantation tour means traveling to such exotic foreign nations as Nicaragua and Panama? Getting to visit striking, gorgeous foreign countries and learn more about teak? Sounds like a win-win to me.<\/p>\n

Teak plantation tours are available in Nicaragua and Panama, and each has its own unique qualities that make them special.<\/p>\n

On the Nicaragua tour, your journey will start out with your arrival in this vibrant yet underappreciated country. From the airport, you will make your way to your hotel, which will be located in one of the central and most active neighbourhoods of Nicaragua\u2019s capital, Managua.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next day, the real adventure begins! Before beginning the teak plantation tour, you\u2019ll get to visit one of Nicaragua\u2019s finest coffee houses, followed by a tour of a local mill. The adventure continues with a trip to Masaya, one of Nicaragua\u2019s hubs for artisan foods and crafts.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

After you\u2019ve taken in Masaya, the tour will proceed to the teak plantations, located in the beautiful Gran Pacifica Beach and Golf Resort. You\u2019ll be taken through the teak plantations, going first on horseback to the teak plantation, where you\u2019ll see some 7-year old teak, as well as seeing the teak nursery.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What Comes Next?<\/h3>\n

Once the teak plantation tour is finished, you\u2019ll get to spend some time at this gorgeous resort, walking along the house-and-tree lined streets, or perhaps taking a stroll along the beach. Finally, a trip back to the hotel in Managua concludes the trip. The following day, it will sadly be time to say goodbye to the good friends you\u2019ve made on the trip. But of course, there will be teak plantation tours next year, and all of the years after that, in which to reconnect. Of course, the itinerary is subject to change, meaning that you may end up doing some other adventurous activities on your teak plantation tour, although of course the teak plantation visits will always be featured.<\/p>\n

On the Panama teak plantation tour, you\u2019ll arrive in Panama\u2019s beautiful and modern capital, Panama City. On your first night there you may enjoy exploring some of the fine restaurants or bars that the city has to offer.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"Teak<\/p>\n

The next day, the fun begins! You and your fellow teak lovers will get on a bus, which will take you through the gorgeous countryside of Panama. You\u2019ll make your way to the Darian Province, where the teak plantation is located. You\u2019ll be greeted by the plantation\u2019s security forces (isn\u2019t it nice to know the teak is being dutifully watched over?) and after this make your way through the plantation. These tours are especially enjoyable for repeat visitors, who get to literally see their teak grow over the years.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Final Thoughts<\/h3>\n

All in all, visiting a teak plantation is\u00a0more than just a way to see up close and personal this wonderful tree grow in all its glory.
