Flexible, fun, friendly guides and an overall blast!! - David and Fredy, our Tamanique waterfall guide were so great! They were really patient with us; the waterfalls are great and they were flexible on whether we wanted to go to the more difficult waterfall trail (we opted out). If you get too tired, you can hire a car to pick you up starting from the stony path upwards to the beginning of the trail. Fun adventure! Fredy took great pictures too!
El Tunco lunch was excellent, great views of the famous rock formation and got to do a bit of shopping before heading home. Thank you!

Waterfall Hike - I recommend this Tour. Communication was great well before the tour began. I was kept informed on when my pickup would be. The hike To and From the waterfall is moderately strenuous. Our tour guide David was great and recognized when another person on the tour wasn't going to make it back up and arranged for a specialized car service to meet that person halfway up the trail. The restaurant where we had lunch in El Tunco was also great.

Amazing Tour! - This was such an amazing tour! The highlight was definitely the Tamanique Waterfalls. It was so refreshing swimming after an intense hike. I went alone on this excursion, but Francis and Fredy made sure I was comfortable. Francis was such a great, friendly tour guide and I highly recommend! He was patient and didn’t ever make me rush the hike. He was very knowledgeable about fun facts about wildlife. Fredy joined us a an extra guide for the hike, but he was great as well. He took the best pics at the waterfalls!
Visiting El Tunco was great as well! I recommend everyone to bring water shoes to swim because the rocks were painful to walk on.

Best part of our El Salvador Vacation - Our Tamanique trip was amazing. We’re both moderately in shape and the hike was great exercise. We went during the rainy season so highly recommended some type of hiking boot as well as water shoes. Our tour guide Josue was AMAZING. Very knowledgeable about the history of El Salvador. Was patient with my wife when she needed to rest and made sure we were safe at all times. And he took the best photos. Overall, we had a great time and highly recommend this excursion, especially if you’re adventurous and enjoy the outdoors.

So Much Fun! - I really enjoy going on these types of trips, the guides are so knowledgeable about the local community, the hiking part, the specifics about what is going on that day. The trips are super comfortable as you're picked up and dropped of in a nice van, you're transported with like-minded people looking for an adventure and it's just well put together.
The hike to the waterfalls isn't difficult, it is a bit muddy because it's the rainy season, but not bad at all. The waterfalls are GORGEOUS and just stunning to look at. The lunch was delicious, the food was beyond tasty as you overlook the beach and just enjoy everyone's company. It's truly an amazing trip!

A 10/10 Experience! - So happy I was able to do this hike and swim in refreshing waters! Honestly loved the convenience of pickup and drop off from my hotel. My tour guides David and I can’t remember the other individual name got amazing pics of me😊. The lunch spot he took me to in El Tunco was too good! This was perfect for my solo trip as it was at least at my own pace with the hike and to enjoy the waterfalls. I definitely do recommend if you visit El Salvador
