I had a great time on this tour with my mom! Walter and Melisa arrived to our hotel on time, and provided us with cold bottles of water. They wore matching EC Tours shirts, which made it feel professional. Walter was a courteous and safe driver, while Melisa provided lots of information about El Salvador’s history, food, nature, cultural identity, politics, etc. while in the car and at location. The boat ride on lake Ilopango was refreshing, beautiful, and informative. We ate delicious minutas while there. Suchitoto was lovely and Melisa had a ton of information about the town and the history of colonization in the country. Lunch at Casa 1800 was yummy, but the view from the patio was the highlight of the meal! All in all, 10/10 would recommend. For folks with curious minds that like to ask questions, learn, and talk - this is a great tour and Melisa was the PERFECT guide.I actually did three full day tours. The other two were the city tour of San Salvador/visit to Picnic Steak House and the volcano, then a day of multiple beaches. All three days I had Miguel as a tour guide and driver.

I actually did three full day tours. The other two were the city tour of San Salvador/visit to Picnic Steak House and the volcano, then a day of multiple beaches. All three days I had Miguel as a tour guide and driver. He was always on time to pick me up and had a great attitude. All my tours were private tours and I felt comfortable with him. He helped me practice my Spanish and get some great photos. He made sure I had a great time and even found a local vendor that agreed to let me make my own pupusa when the place we were supposed to go to for a pupusa workshop was closed. I had a great experience.I communicated with Edwin several months prior to my arrival and with his help, I planned to see the most I could within the short time I had in the country.

I communicated with Edwin several months prior to my arrival and with his help, I planned to see the most I could within the short time I had in the country. To start with, Edwin arranged transport from Antigua Guatemala to El Tunco, then I had a long day tour that covered Santa Ana, San Salvador City and Suchitoto. This ended up being a private tour with Edwin and one of his staff which had the obvious benefits of flexibility. Edwin is a gentleman, easy going and chatty - he’s a wealth of knowledge, proud of his country and rightly so. And he doesn’t sugarcoat, he tells it as it is. A better introduction to this beautiful and friendly country isn’t possible. There was no rush during this tour and I had the time I wanted. A special highlight for me was Suchitoto, a place with a special history. Guatemala has got Antigua, Nicaragua got Granada, El Salvador got Suchitoto. El Salvador surprised me, it’s more modern than I expected, people are extremely friendly and open minded. And it’s great value. And not forgetting the pupusas, the best street food in the world! Edwin then arranged for me transport to Nicaragua and between cities. He booked volcano boarding and sailing on Lake Nicaragua. He can book anything if necessary, just ask him. And it’s all at a fair cost - I paid most of it via PayPal before I arrived and everything went 100% as planned. I highly recommend using the services of EC Tours to experience the best of El Salvador (and Nicaragua).
