First Day in El Salvador - Our tour guide was Cristian. He was punctual and ready to take us on this spectacular tour. The drive uphill was adventurous with beautiful views. We arrived at sunset for the epic, breathtaking views of San Salvador. Indeed, this tour is a must do in my opinion. Cristian was able to capture nice videos and pictures. At the end, he showed us the historical region which was so beautiful at night time. This tour is highly recommended

Amazing Views and Guide! - My son and I met up with our guide, Jared to take a private 4x4 tour of the views of San Salvador from the old Cable Car. We took the tour in the late afternoon and were able to watch the sunset! Jared was such a friendly host and very knowledgeable. He even took us to a local restaurant after the tour to try pupusas that were amazing!

Do not miss this evening tour, hidden gem - Saw a most gorgeous evening view of the city, encircled by volcanoes, the sun setting in the west, city lights below including Christmas lights, Lake to the east, all from a very high point once a cablecar station, approached thru a private coffee plantation. Cristian Hernandez was an outstanding guide throughout picking me up from the airport, driving 4x4 very expertly up the plantation road, explaining everything in detail, showing coffee beans out to dry as we took in the sunset. Has to be the best view of the city, still something of a secret. After that before dropping me to my hotel Cristian showed me Centro Historico in full Christmas lighting, milling with people, families, kids, live entertainment on an outdoor stage, the important buildings. This evening tour is highly recommended and Cristian is a most talented guide.

Breathtaking! - This tour is a private tour. Unlike other tours where I am grouped with other people, I as the only person on the tour. I have nothing against being grouped with other people (I do them all the time), but it was nice to just have space for myself. I booked the tour for later in the evening so that I could watch the sun set over the city and view the night lights. Jared picked me up at my hotel in the city and we made our way up the mountain. The scenery up the mountain was beautiful and you get glimpses of San Salvador. Once we got the site, we walked around the grounds of a former amusement park. Jared gave an entertaining history of the park and showed pictures of it when it was up and running. The difference between the pictures and the structures that have remained is astounding. From the site where cable car used to launch you have the most amazing view of El Salvador and mountains in the distance. We walked around exploring the grounds and watched the sunset. Then we started our drive down the mountain. Since it was just me, Jared was nice enough to make a quick stop at The Little Prince Park before he dropped me off at my hotel. It is one of my favorite books and I really appreciate that he took the time to stop. I highly recommend this tour if you are looking for a relaxing way to get out and see some beautiful and amazing views of the city.

View of the capital - Excelent off road ride to the top of the mountain where there was a cable car. View of the whole city and the lake from the top. See how coffee grows and other interesting trees. Go afternoon, to see the sunset.
