What travellers are saying
- Nanci P2 contributionsEl Salvador is a lovely country. Because of its history, many might not consider traveling there. It has a lush, tropical vibe and the beaches are fabulous. Lots of nice restaurants too.Written 10 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- LifeOfDUGBotswanna209 contributionsYou never know when you book a tour through a company you find on the internet. But we could not have been more pleased with our 7 days in El Salvador.
I contacted Eduardo with Salvadorean Tours in November of 2022. We were staying in Antigua Guatemala for five weeks and thought a week in El Salvador would be fun before heading home.
Eduardo put a custom itinerary together for us. From being picked up in our rental home in Antigua Guatemala to being dropped off at the San Salvador Airport. Everything went like clock work.
We hiked volcanoes, learned how to make Pupusasa, went kayaking/birdwatching, learned about El Salvador’s history, rescued a turtle, and visited one of the most spectacular churches in the world. And that only touches a few highlights of the trip.
All the accommodations were perfect. The drivers and guides were accommodating to our needs.
We highly recommend Salvadorean Tours.Written 14 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

We had the pleasure of meeting Raphael and his knowledge of the country is amazing!
We hired his services for transport to and from the airport, a trip to lake Coatepeque, Los Naranjos, and Ataco.
He was always on time, gave us excellent suggestions to visit, dine and shop! His large commercial van was comfortable and fit my family of 6! Raphael knew his way around the cities and best ways to avoid traffic!
I highly recommend this company for your transport needs in El Salvador! I will be using this service again on our next trip to the beautiful country of El Salvador!Written 16 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

It's not particularly big, but if you are looking for some theatre in El Salvador, it is one of the best spots.Written 6 January 2015This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Elise N29 contributionsI spent three days with this family-owned and operated company - not only did they show me around safely, it felt like they were my family while traveling solo in El Salvador. No question, I'd recommend them 100% to anyone looking for any kind of tour in the county. They'll make it happen.Written 17 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- ErinCatania_ItalyCatania, Italy2 contributionsI HIGHLY recommend this tour company! Adonis was our tour guide and Eric was our driver. They both went above and beyond to ensure that we had an amazing experience while touring the Joya de ceren and the Cerre Verde!Written 16 October 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Wes H.1 contributionGreat dive with Mick! He really cares about his divers and goes out of his way to ensure their comfort. My mask was a little uncomfortable for the first dive but he brought extras and insisted i change it for the 2nd dive and it was much better! Just 1 example of how much he cares about his clients. Dive with Mick and you will learn a thing or two along the way!Written 20 January 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
