Best guide ever - Francisco is one of the best tour guides to explore with; he is definitely in top 3 of all time guides I have traveled with in Europe, Asia and South America. He is honest, respectful, very knowledgeable and proud representative of his beautiful country of El Salvador. He speaks perfect English. And most of all, I appreciated how Francisco went above & beyond for our group. For a simple question of where we could get our Covid-19 testing done, he drove us around to find a legitimate place (it was on December 24th - many places were closed) and got us a discount for the test through his firm - he did all of this free of charge and after he was off the clock. I received my results in less than 2 hours via WhatsApp, and Francisco actually followed with me to make sure I had it and set for my return flight. As an experienced traveler I highly recommend Francisco for your next adventure in El Salvador and neighboring countries.
