MANAGUA, Nicaragua – Nicaragua is one of the safest countries in Central America, but in the case that something happens while a tourist is visiting the destination, there is immediate help available. The Nicaraguan Tourism Board has launched a free emergency number to provide assistance to all tourists visiting Nicaragua.

Tourists can dial “101” if they need immediate attention because of an accident, loss of travel documents, or any other situation that requires immediate response.

The 101 number is available 24 hours a day and will be answered by a bilingual touristic police officer who will assess the situation. The traveler’s details will then be forwarded to the Nicaraguan Tourism Board and local police department.
