Great combination of experiences! - I had a fantastic time enjoying these sites with Josué! After starting the morning with some adventures at Cafe Albania, we had a relaxing stroll and delicious coffee in Ataco followed by a long afternoon of pampering at the thermal pool and spa. This was a great combination of experiences and I highly recommended this tour, especially if you are fortunate enough to get to enjoy it with Josué. He was very attentive, took lots of pictures for me, and made sure the day went smoothly.

Cafe Albania, Ataco Town, Hot Springs & lunch - The great tour guide that made it memorable. Enjoyed every aspect of the tour. The coffee plantation was very informative, mud baths relaxing. Touring the small towns with their unique shops & murals were very interesting.

Best day in El Salvador - This was an AMAZING day! The day is full so get some rest the night before. Gabby was an amazing guide. She was sweet and friendly. The group that joined us on the tour was a vibe! It felt like we were a little family. Gabby did not rush us at any excursion we stopped at. She took photos of all of us and watched our things while we went on the excursions. I would definitely do this tour again and i would LOVE for gabby to be the guide 10/10

Our tour guide Gaby was incredible!!! Her communication and commitment to the group having an incredible time was unmatched. We loved every single location that we visited and she was so knowledgeable about the country and we had such great conversation with her. I would recommend this tour to everyone if you’re looking for an entire day of truly the best experience you want while on vacation. We loved the hot springs, cafe Albania, Ataco, everything was truly an 11/10!!! Truly the most incredible day we’ve had on our trip so far!!!

Café Albania adventure 🚲, Ataco shopping 🛍️, relaxing day at Hot Springs 🧖🏽‍♀️ - Our tour guide Josue was EXTREMELY knowledgeable. We’d recommend him any day! We were scared to do the bike zip line but with his encouragement, we all did it and are so grateful we did. We found the bell in the maze and tried the wing swing. It was one of our favorite days filled with unforgettable memories. In Ataco, we learned about textiles, had a cup of coffee, and shopped for souvenirs where I got a machete and a bottle of Chaparro (El Salvador‘s national licor). Lunch at Termales Santa Teresa with the mud treatment and massage was the perfect way to end our day of adventure. Although it was raining at the beginning, we enjoyed the amenities and the massage promotion! This was hands down our favorite tour on this trip!

Relaxing and informative - If only doing 1 event during a stay in El Salvador, this should be it. Tour guide Gaby was excellent. Very insightful and gave a great guided tour of the rutas de flores, it's history and importance to the country. I chose to just do the 1 event at Cafe Albania, but we had plenty of time to do multiple. Walking around Ataco had seen the murals, listen to marimba band in the square, and looked at the shops. Even though the main street is still under construction, was able to have a good experience. Ended the day at The Hot springs. Very relaxing, and I would recommend to anyone.

Amazing experience 😍 - It was such an amazing experience with an amazing tour guide! I highly recommend doing this tour! If possible and you get lucky hopefully your tour guide will be Josué romero. He’s excellent with what he does and made this tour as enjoyable as he could possibly make it! Thank you Josue you’re awesome and I hope to work with you again!

Good experience - The overall experience is consumed of driving to the Ataco. I love the culture displayed and the beauty of knowing everything is hand made with love. You can purchase anything at a well feasible price. In a town filled with arts, crafts, colors, churches and history give you so much appreciation to culture. The hot spring was hot and in some parts it was excruciating hot. The restaurant offer a variety of different food. The hot springs were filled with many bugs. They need to clean it. I didn’t really enjoy the hot springs because I wasn’t interested in floating with the bugs. I did enjoy the sauna room.
