Highly recommend. - Great tour company. Had Liz as our guide and Alessandro as our driver. They are the best. She speaks both Spanish and English. Very knowledgeable and informative. She keeps you want to learn more and more about El Salvador. Her attentiveness is the best. Alessandro is one of the best drivers. He is a safe and sound driver. They represent a great company. The communication with the tour guides and the company is by far the better ones.

Mayan Discovery - Fantastic outing to three mayan sites as well as a volcanic and caldera view lunch. Tour was with EC and guide Lisbeth and driver Alessandro. Both were superb and made sure that the drive was seamless and the outing informative and fun. Lisbeth is a wonderful guide and made what would normally be a boring outing that much more engaging. Overall a great day and would recommend this for those who have a fascination with all things ancient.

Mayan Experience - This was the first tour we did in El Salvador and we were lucky to be able to get a private option with Lisbeth as our guide. We were picked up at 830am prompt and off we went. We got to go to all three sites plus customize along the way to accommodate some of our needs. We learned so much and had a really nice session with a special guide at Tazumal who shared a lot of knowledge about the Mayans and the Nawat language that is getting a resurgence thankfully. We had a very nice lunch also at Lake Coatepeque. It is along day but if you are hungry for immersion and discovery and knowledge of the country, you can not miss this tour! Walter our driver was great. Lisbeth is a star! And you can;t go wrong with EC tours. :-)

El Salvador | Excellent Tour - My brother and I had a custom tour including Joya and San Salvador. Our guide, Jocelyn, and driver, William, were both very professional and knowledgeable. Additionally, they were so fun and personable. We learned much about the country and practiced our Spanish. Highlights were Joya (UNESCO World Heritage site), and downtown San Salvador including a lovely lunch, the Cathedral and El Rosario (must see!). We would highly recommend this tour and look forward to returning to beautiful El Salvador.

A great time in El Salvador! - We actually booked everything with EC Tours from airport transfer to all the tours and return transfer and everything was perfect and safe. Our drivers Walter and Alex were excellent and our guides Wilman and Michelle were top notch guides and gave us a lot of information from history, foods, culture etc. Hopefully, I will be lucky enough to return and will for sure use EC tours again.

EC Tours is Exceptional! - Miguel was an amazing driver and tour guide. It was awesome to hear about El Salvador culture and history from a really nice guy. He made touring easy and fun and found a really nice restaurant with a great view for lunch. I would recommend EC Tours and Miguel to my friends if they want to visit El Salvador. My husband was nervous about traveling El Salvador with no fluency in Spanish at all, but Miguel was very fluent in English and translated signage & helped us talk to local merchants and the restaurant without any issues.

Great day visiting the ancient Maya sites with the fantastic Edwin! - I had only a weekend free in El Salvador so I really wanted to make the most of it. I chose to visit three Mayan archeological sites with Edwin and Caty as guides and it was fantastic. Edwin knows a lot about the ancient and also more recent history and took me to fascinating places. He even took a detour to show me Mons. Romero's house when I mentioned wanting to see it. If you love history and archeology, I really recommend this tour.
