A Truly Unforgettable Experience – Highly Recommend Fácil Travel El Salvador!

5.00I discovered Fácil Travel El Salvador completely by accident, and my only regret is not finding them sooner. Jared, the owner, is absolutely exceptional, and thanks to him I had an unforgettable experience—and ultimately fell in love with the country. Although he has a website with set tours, Jared is incredibly flexible and truly tailors everything to what you want. I reached out without expecting much, but he replied almost immediately and planned the next three days for me. I shared what I hoped to see, and he made every bit of it happen. Beyond being wonderfully organised, Jared is the best guide I have ever had: knowledgeable, considerate, and genuinely lovely to spend time with. Nothing was ever a problem for him. Instead of providing a basic tour and rushing through it, he went out of his way to show me as much as possible. We stopped in places I would never have discovered on my own or with any standard tour. We had great conversations, constant laughs, and I always felt I was getting an authentic experience. Jared showed me the “real” El Salvador—no overly polished, touristy stops—just the life, culture, and spirit of the local people. That’s exactly what I’ve always looked for in travel, and he delivered it perfectly. And as a bonus, his taste in music was fantastic. He introduced me to several songs that I’ve since added to my Spotify playlist, and they’ll always remind me of my unforgettable time in El Salvador. Jared is incredibly talented, passionate about his work, and destined to go far. I can’t recommend him highly enough.
