Welcoming, informative tour for 27! - Top quality tour guides, with fluent English and the smartest way to learn about San Salvador. I did both a private tour of downtown and they organized a 27 person team tour for our group. The private tour was at my pace and filled with amazing insights and experiences with the food and culture of the city. The team tour was in a new air conditioned coach to the volcano, restaurant, coffee plantation and rainbow slide. Filled with great history and answering all of our questions, they were extremely patient with us and made sure we enjoyed every bit. In all my travels, rarely did I see tour guides go the extra effort to welcome us to their country like this team! Thank you for everything and I am glad that I did not fit in the beaches into my trip so then I can return for another tour with you and my family in the future! Many smiles from Canada, from everyone on the tour!

Best Travel Company in El Salvador - We have cooperated with Eric and Doris for many times. We go to El Salvador very often for business purposes, they pick us up and drop us off at the airport. They also provided us with a driver with an SUV for transportation in the city, so we don't need to deal with traffic and directions. They are responsive and punctual, they keep their promises. We are delighted with them and recommend them to anyone who wants a trouble-free trip to El Salvador.

The best tour guide! - It was the best tour so far that we had after so many trips around the world! The tour guide Erick was a real professional: spoke fluent English and was a full of knowledge of the history of a city and its surroundings. His SUV was almost brand, very comfortable with a/c. Because of him we experienced a lot of amazing things and drank the best Salvadoran coffee! Gracias!

Excellent Experience - I wanted to share the great experience I had using “Papagayo Adventures” in El Salvador. We took 2 tours and our bilingual guide was Erick Gerardo Galves, who provided us with an excellent experience taking the tours, one to a Vulcan including the city tour, and the other one to "Antigua Guatemala". I can say they have competitive rates and are very reliable, consistent, knowledgeable, and courteous. That is why I am giving “Papagayo Adventures” a 5-star rating.

Walk through the historic center - Erick and Erick Jr. offered us a very nice tour, full of history. Erick Jr. has a lot of knowledge of the history of his beautiful native country. Erick was very kind and attentive to my parents, who are older adults with mobility limitations. He answered all their questions and shared stories about his family. Highly recommended this tour of the historic center.

Amazing experience, love the miradoro view top of the city! And by heading home we ate papusas in Orocluita! I did 11-3:30 all worth it! Thank you Eric for the recommendation! Gracias
