Awesome Day ! - We went on the San Salvadore city tour and Boqueron Volcano visit. Mateo was our guide and Jose the driver. It was an awesome day to learn about this beautiful country. The history is fascinating and inspiring to see how the country is evolving into itself . The future is bright and you can see / feel that through its people. Mateo was an incredible guide - just the right blend of information and letting us take in the sites for ourselves .I felt very safe and comfortable walking around the city to the different sites …It was more like being out with a friend for the day . I would definitely recommend El Salvador to anyone and Tunco Life tour agency as well for any adventures you may want ! 😎🇸🇻

A great tour with a great tour guide! - Really enjoyed our experience with our tour guide Salvatore. He was very knowledgeable, hospitable and he took the time to make sure we saw as much as we could fit into our day as well to teach us history, knowledge and good energy. He was timely in picking us up and took us to a great spot to eat for lunch. We were done with our tour around 14:00 though he continued to take us to our last site even though we were technically done and he even cared to drop us off at a museum we wanted to visit after his time with us. He is really passionate about what he does, many tour operators and guides lack this energy he had, this created a good comfortable atmosphere the whole trip. I highly recommend this company and tour for all your tour needs. He is very knowledgeable of his country, the city and reqdy to talk about anything we had in mind. The volcano was an incredible site completely worth the day.  He also had great transportation, a large van with working AC which was a great bonus. I would rate Salvatore's tour a 10 out of 10! Will book with him for all my future tours in El Salvador.

Fun Relaxed Tour - This tour was a fun and exciting experience! From start to finish, it was well-organized and packed with exciting activities and breathtaking sights. I booked the tour alone but joined another group. The tour company picked me up from my hotel in the city and returned me at the end of the tour with no problem. They communicated pick up/drop off times and information I needed for the tour like what to wear, itinerary, what to look for, etc. Salvas, the tour guide, was absolutely amazing! He was not only extremely knowledgeable about the history and culture of each destination but also shared fascinating stories and insights that made each stop even more memorable. We started the tour by driving up to see El Boquerón. There are several flights of stairs to climb to get to the views but nothing too bad. There is also a little coffee shop where you can sit, refresh, and enjoy the view. Next, we were driven to Picnic Steak House to slide down the rainbow slide. We didn't spend much time here (only to ride the slide) but the scenery is fun and magical. It puts me in the mind of Alice in Wonderland. There was a little time to take pics before heading downtown. Once downtown, we walked a couple blocks to Liberty Plaza where we started our tour of downtown. We walked around to different points of interests and Salvas gave us insightful history on the city and various historic buildings. We stopped at a coffee shop for a beverage and light snack. The pace was nice. We were able to appreciate stop and move along without feeling rushed. I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a fun and well-guided way to experience a number of things in one day.
