A fun introduction to El Salvador!

5.00I just finished up with the classic Ruta de Las Flores tour with Josué yesterday. It was fantastic! Josué was super friendly and informative. He made the tour really fun and enjoyable. He would share a lot of insights into the country and the tour, chat with us and just vibe out to great music without needing to fill all the space (something I find really unbearable when tour guides don't let you chill too, especially on a two hour drive each way!) His English was excellent. Communication via WhatsApp was super easy. When one of the tourists with us was having a mini-tantrum over traffic on the way back and their early flight, Josué was very patient and professional and kept the mood light. And the tour structure was just the right amount of time at each location. 10/10, highly recommend Josué.
Amazing

5.00Gabi our tour guide was so wonderful! She knew so much about El Salvador and imparted us with wisdom and love for the people and country. She was patient and flexible with us regarding the time we wanted to spend at each site and the things we wanted to do like the zip lining , hot springs, and searching for indigo gifts, the specialty business in that area of Ataco.

5.00I had such a wonderful experience on this tour! Gaby was the absolute best tour guide! She was fun, knowledgeable, prompt and very helpful throughout the day. I enjoyed having a day filled with adventure and great drinks at Cafe Albania, followed by delicious coffee and culture in Ataco, and the final stop at Santa Teresa Hot Springs provided a rejuvenating and relaxing experience. I highly recommend this tour and having Gaby as a tour guide made it even more exceptional!
