My heart erupted with joy and fun!
What an AMAZING day. Francis (driver) and Josue (tour guide) where fantastic. I did this tour as a solo female traveler and could not have felt more safe. I was picked up at my hotel and after a brief stop to grab any food/drinks we wanted, we went to the volcano.
Throughout the ride, Josue took the time to tell us about his country's history and current day facts. He also told us what to expect for the day ahead. He spoke in both English and Spanish for all of the participants.
The first part of the volcano was HARD. My breathing was terrible trying to adjust to the altitude. After about 45 minutes and a few stops, it got better. Josue made sure everyone in our group was keeping pace and stopping as needed. We all made it to the TOP. The ascent took about 2.5 hours.... *Please note that this trip requires you be physically fit/able to truly hike*
It was cloudy and we couldn't see the crater but then all of a sudden the clouds went away and WHAT A SIGHT! Absolutely stunning. We stayed taking pictures and eating popsicles for about 40 minutes before descending back down. The way down took about 1.5 hours maybe....
Then we went to Lago de Coatepeque. The views and food at the restaurant were great. I was able to order my food and then rent a jetski from a different vendor (not a part of this tour). So much fun!!!!
Josue was a great guide and I highly recommend this trip with him.

Great tour!
Great tour! I had a lot of fun on this trip and would definitely recommend it. My tour guide Alfredo was super kind and helpful, and all the archeological sites are super interesting. The hike up the volcano is also super fun, but definitely make sure you are wearing appropriate shoes and clothes.

Great tour, make sure to check!
Great tour! Everyone was super nice and communicated very well, it was super easy getting through all the borders, and the drive wasn’t bad at all. Lots of opportunities to see new things and meet new people. Definitely a long day though, left at 04:30am and returned at 8:00pm. Need room for 6-8 new passport stamps. Definitely communicate with them and check if your trip will be going, as my trip was scheduled for a Tuesday, and on the Saturday before I messages then to check if my tour would be going, as they will cancel the night before if you are the only person on the tour that day, and they told me I was the only person booked for the Tuesday, so I was able to be moved to the Monday instead on a day the tour was already confirmed to be going.

Professional and informative with food and food for thought
Dave is very professional yet entertaining and informative, covering many topics from history to politics to education system and economy. With 20 people in the group, it was still personalised enough to ask questions and the pace was slow with lots of stops. Even so there were options offered to purchase authentic El Salvadorian food and drink at various stops as part of the experience, there was never a hard sell or push. We enjoyed the walk immensely and loved all the food for thought. 😃
