Cafe Albania bike Zipline, Rainbow Slide, Wings Swing, Santa teresa Hotsprings
Our tour guide Lizbeth picked us up from our hotel to start our tour on time. The tour guide was knowledge, professional and we learned a lot of history. The rainbow slide/bike zipline/wings swing were super fun. The Santa Teresa Hotsprings were awesome and relaxing. Our lunch was delicious at La Parilla De Lenha with typical food from El Salvador. highly recommend it.

Wonderful experience…try to get Diego as your guide
Diego Gomez was our guide for the day. From the start, he kept us interested during the pickups and drive out to the volcano with well-delivered information about El Salvador. He answered any questions we had along the way. The traffic in El Salvador is very bad so be aware that you will shave hours off your time in the shuttle if you get picked up in El Salvador instead of El Zonte or other outlying region. Diego timed stops along the hike to point out trees, birds and certain plants that make their home on the side of the volcano. We were lucky to be able to summit the volcano in good weather. Diego patiently took many photos of each member of the group at the 3 lookouts and at the summit. Incredible views at the top! Do not miss otherworldly color of the water in the crater at the summit. Afterwards we enjoyed a wonderful lunch overlooking the lake. All in all very worth it.

Volcano Views & Vibes: My Solo Day Running Through San Salvador
This is a great trip to familiarize yourself with San Salvador and the surrounding areas of El Salvador. Osmaro was a great guide and my personal photographer :)
I learned a great deal about the country and amazing facts about each stop. Being a solo traveler, I felt completely safe and had an amazing time! The group size was perfect for meeting new people, but also being able to get a personalized experience. I truly enjoyed each and every stop we made.

Best Airport Pick Up Ever
Our driver was fantastic! He was very polite and he drove as a professional driver. He stopped for us to get coconut water on the way out of the airport, and he helped with the luggage. 10 stars review! I will recommend this service to everyone coming to El Salvador.

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. 😃

Amazing Tour Experience
I had such a great time on this tour. Arely our tour guide was knowledgeable, engaging, and made every stop feel meaningful. You could tell Arely really cared about creating a memorable experience for everyone. Belis our driver was just as impressive — safe, smooth driving the entire way and such a friendly presence.
The two of them worked so well together that the whole day felt effortless. I left with new memories, fun stories, and a deeper appreciation for the places we visited. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a well-organized, enjoyable, and stress-free experience.
Gracias Arely!!!

Great experience!
The tour was great! Salva was the guide we got and from the driving to the tour itself he made it a great time, comfortable and informative. Every place you visit is worth it and we had plenty of time for each activity/place and got to have a nice lunch along with time to be able shop for things. I would recommend it

Beautiful, must do all day tour!
An AMAZING full day tour with Josue! He was very informative and the communication from pick up to drop off was great. All admissions were included and details were accurate in the description. Josue was patient with us all in the crazy traffic and took sooooo many pictures and videos of my friends and I. Cafe Albania was fun - and quick lines even when crowded & hot springs were clean and quiet. Beautiful experience and DELICIOUS food!

Praise Julio
All the praise goes to Julio my driver. This is a hard bumpy 10+ hour round trip and he handled it like a champion. Traffic and potholes scooters etc. Antigua is amazing a must visit it is much busier and active than San salvador. Tons of shops and little restaurants. History all around with volcanos all around you. My guide there was Manuel and he was amazing took us to all the churches and sites in the city. The drive is the hardest part, the border is easy. If you survive the long hard drive it is totally worth the price or just stay in Antigua all together its amazing

10 out of 10
We had an absolutely incredible walking tour of San Salvador with our guide, Carlos. From the moment the tour began, Carlos brought the city to life with his deep knowledge, thoughtful storytelling, and genuine passion for El Salvador’s history and culture.
He answered every question we had and we had a lot! Carlos answered with patience and so much insight. You can tell he truly loves what he does and cares about giving visitors an authentic and meaningful experience. We walked away with a richer understanding of the city and a new appreciation for its beauty and complexity.
If you’re visiting San Salvador, do yourself a favor and book a tour with Carlos. It was one of the highlights of our trip!

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.
