We booked this tour on November 15, 2025 and it was magnificent, the volcano was so nice to see the views were spectacular and it was a very fun hike. There’s some wonderful photo opportunities and even just getting to see around some of the local areas as we drove around who was great it was not terribly expensive in our fees to enter the park recovered by booking the tour. The atmosphere was very relaxed The vibes in general were pretty chill. Everybody was very friendly. I ended up with a whole bunch of people that I didn’t know but they were all cool. Crowds were not horrible. Even though there were other groups there, it never felt crowded at most one group might sidestepped for 30 seconds while another group got to pass them if the trail got a little narrow, but it was never bad. And our guy, Diego was absolutely top-notch so friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and polite a super early to accommodate all of us came and picked us up drove us around was extremely personable, even so much is during the training time to help me with my Spanish, I could not recommend him more. I wish I had more time here, el Salvadore is beautiful, this would be good for anyone who want a little adventure, some exercise, to see another country or just wants to try something new.

Diego was an amazing tour guide — very knowledgeable, super friendly, and incredibly patient. The hike was definitely a challenge for my boyfriend and me, but Diego kept checking on us to make sure we were doing okay and always gave us enough breaks. He also had no problem helping us take pictures along the way. We really appreciated his kindness and professionalism — highly recommend him!

Wonderful experience that I definitely recommend. It is tiresome the walk but when you reach the top all that fatigue is rewarded by the sight. Diego, our guide, a genius. Super friendly and all the way he was telling us stories about the volcano and about the country in general, and when he saw that we were tired with all the patience he stopped for us to recover and move on.

I had a great time, Josue explained everything in great detail and was very friendly and attentive to everyone. I take rating of our needs and we adapt for the bed. In my opinion the route itself is medium difficult level, but the Good Mood and good vibe made me feel very comfortable and made the route more passing.

My tour guide name was Diego. He was absolutely AMAZING!!! He communicated with me until the morning of the hike. He was on time. He explained to the group what our day would consist of. We enjoyed a traditional El Salvador breakfast. He was very knowledgeable about the culture and history of El Salvador. He answered our questions about the country and taught us a lot about the beautiful country. That's all before the hike! During the hike we had little times to rest and during those times he educated us about the trees, birds, plants ash and eruptions. He was soooo helpful and patient. After the hike we enjoyed lunch overlooking lake Coatepeque. I HIGHLY recommend booking with Diego, he's awesome!

The trip was perfect! Our guide, Diego, was the absolute best guide. He was knowledgeable and shared lots of information about the country, the history and about the volcanoes. Did I mention that he was incredibly nice and respectful? He was everything I could want in a guide. I would love to have him again. The hike wasn’t too tough but it was all worth it for the views. I am so happy I took this tour.

I had an amazing time on the Santa Ana volcano and Lake Coatepeque tour with Diego! Diego was such a fantastic guide—very welcoming, easy to chat with, and full of knowledge about the history of the area. His positive energy made the whole experience even better. The hike itself was beautiful, and learning the background along the way added so much depth. One of the highlights was his lunch recommendation at Lake Coatepeque—mojarra rellena. It was absolutely delicious and the perfect way to relax after the hike. Overall, the tour was unforgettable, and Diego truly made the difference with his enthusiasm, insights, and hospitality. Highly recommend!

Such an amazing hike! Seriously breathtaking. I want to shout out Josué for being such a great tour guide & allowing me to go at my own pace! The hike overall isn’t too strenuous, but definitely a challenge in some area (the rocks) Just keep going, the views are worth it 🤗 Josué took some amazing pictures/videos once we got to the top & as a solo traveler, that was much needed 🤣 thank you so much Josué!!
