Amazing Day Trip!

5.00Our tour guide, Gerson, was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about El Salvador overall and the areas that we went to, was an excellent conversationalist in English, translated for us when talking to anyone we met, and knew a lot of great places to go so that we could have a great time. We really appreciate the tour! It was better than we could have imagined.
Nice Last Day

5.00After spending most my days hiking, spending a slower paced day at Suchitoto was nice! Drive isn’t too long, the boat ride was nice, the restaurant chosen for lunch had an insanely beautiful view! Wendy was our guide, and she gave us the background of everywhere we visited. The only downside- to NO fault of our guide or tour company- is that the main square in Suchitoto is under heavy construction. Hopefully they finish soon, I’m sure it’s going to look great!
Boat ride, lunch, walking tour with beautiful sights

4.00Get to know a city with virtually all its colonial architecture, one of the oldest in El Salvador is excellent, worth the main square being in works. The walk on Lake Ilopango is excellent even though the waters of the lake are not properly clean The guide/driver that caught me was Gerson which is excellent! The suggestion of the place is what to eat for lunch was excellent
Definitely recommend

5.00Lisbeth was an amazing guide! Very knowledgeable and engaging. The tour didn’t only start at the destination, but she shared a lot of knowledge on our way as well about the landmarks and areas we drove by. Tour was great and I felt like we saw everything and more. Would definitely book with EC Tours again :)

5.00This is our second trip to El Salvador where we book tours with EC. I had to go solo since my spouse was not feeling well. Gerson & Johnathan made my day amazing! Ensured that my day was full of history, sight seeing, adventure, & above kept a professional demeanor while still ensuring I had an amazing time. Suchitoto is full of history, and a must see for those who enjoy a historical place that endured the many facets of El Salvador sometimes sad history. The views are amazing as well as the food. El Tercio waterfalls is a magical place! Such a unique waterfall! The rock formations make this experience one unlike any other. Because my spouse did not attend, Gerson was kind enough to take me through a historical tour of San Salvador’s historic area. Gerson is extremely knowledgeable and made it a point of ensuring we visited ALL the sights I wanted to see! THANK YOU GENTLEMEN!! Until next time!!!

5.00Everything beautiful, the spectacular place! Salvador is one of our favorite destinations. From the beginning, we were always very well attended to, we were guided as our tour was going to be before traveling. In addition Wendy, our guide was wonderful; she explained everything very clear, clarified doubts, had a lot of patience and has too kind treatment towards people. Erick your partner and our driver, very kind. He also explained many interesting things! I really recommend this tour and it is 100% company. It is worth visiting El Salvador and requesting the tours offered by this company.
Amazing Experience!

5.00The Tour was amazing! I thought that we were going to be with more people; however, it was me, my dad, Carlos the driver, and Wendy the guide. We really had a good time; she was very informative and knowledgeable about the history and all the questions we asked! I highly recommend this tour.

5.00Thank you very much to my guide William for tremendous experience, he came to pick me up at my hotel, we had a super enjoyable conversation throughout the tour, Suchitoto and Ilopango are must-see destinations if you are in El Salvador, more when you have guides as dedicated and good as my footman William, a pleasure to have done my tour with them 💯
