What are people saying about San Salvador

Ask for Josue 👍
This was a great tour! The day was great from start to finish. Josue, our tour guide, was most knowledgeable, kind and helpful. We started our day early, which is a major plus to beat the crowds and traffic, to give you more time to enjoy the volcano summit and lake afterwards. Josue informed us of El Salvador’s history on our drive, which kept us entertained and is now new knowledge I have about this beautiful country. The hike itself is definitely moderate — the start of the hike is steep because of the elevation and had me catching my breath, but then it eases up and the views are incredible, the last 20 minutes are challenging because of the rocks. Anyway, it is doable! Josue allowed us many breaks which helped us on the hike and to reset. Additionally, the top of the volcano is breathtaking and you can cool down with a popsicle or choco-banana for your descent down (bring cash). The restaurant at the lake was also decent, with delicious food and opportunities to take a swim or to rent a jet ski! Highly recommend.

Beautiful views!
My family is from El Salvador, but never had taken me to these sites before. I loved the tour! We saw ancient sites, beautiful lake views, and volcanic peaks. I went by myself and truly enjoyed it. You will be driving up a winding mountain so if you get car sick, do yourself a favor and take Dramamine. I highly recommend this tour to see ancient sites and picturesque areas.

Had such a good time!
I had such a great time during the tour. Carlos was so knowledgeable and I was so impressed with the information he knew about Salvadoran history and economics. We got recommendations of restaurants and places to go to after. He was patient, kind, and funny! I learned so much, I took notes and shared that information with others. We also had delicious lunch and the walking was not strenuous at all.

Amazing day with an incredible guide.
My girlfriend and I had an absolutely amazing time on this tour led by Osmaro. I was glad the tour didn’t involve a heavy amount of walking, I would say we got around 10,000 steps throughout the tour. In between the stops Osmaro showed how well versed he is with the country’s past, present and future. He answered all of our questions and the other travelers as well. He should really consider a part time gig as a photographer because he had great ideas for spots to take pictures and was always willing to take a picture for us. Incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and personable. 10/10 I would absolutely recommend this tour.

The capital of the small country of El Salvador, San Salvador is a perfect jumping-off point for exploring the country. Scale Santa Ana Peak, the country’s tallest mountain and an active volcano; border-hop into nearby Honduras for the ruins of Copan, some of the world's best-preserved Maya ruins; or follow the Ruta de las Flores, a path that features incredible biodiversity and indigenous culture. San Salvador tours are the way to see the country and region in all its complexity.
