About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- FrequentFlier7873120 contributionsGreat tour, great tour guideThe tour was great! Got to explore the city, see and learn about city as well. The tour guide Rafae, was great and very knowledgeable. He answered all the questions that we had. He also is great photographer, he took some excellent pictures and videos.Written 4 February 2025
- Erick M0 contributionsPrueba Superada !!The whole experience is amazing, we are not hikers but it was something we always wanted to do. The feeling you get when you make it to the top is pure adrenaline. Our tour guide Osmaro was very nice and knew a lot of history about the trip. Then he took us to eat near the lake and it was too bad we didn’t bring swimming shorts because it must have been refreshing to dive into the cold water. If you are a hiker and love the outdoors, this is something you should have at the very top of your bucket lists when you visit El Salvador.Written 29 January 2025
- Elaine A0 contributionsSeven Waterfalls TourHiking the seven waterfalls was definitely worth the experience. I fell and busted my knee within two minutes of the hike, but it was breathtaking, very relaxing, a little stressful but all worth it. Osmaro as always very friendly very attentive with my brother and I. He made us feel very comfortable throughout the hike. He made sure we captured every moment of our hike. He was definitely worried for us throughout the hike because we thought we weren’t going to make it, but he made sure that we followed his instructions in order for us to have a successful hike. I definitely recommend him for all your hikes and tours.Written 23 January 2025
- GeneS7740 contributionsA Must See El Salvador AdventureThis adventure went extremely well. Our guide, Osmaro was on time for our pick-up, informative on el Salvador’s history and people, geophysical and natural aspects of the volcan and he was flexible to accommodate everyone in our group. We sampled local culture and cuisine including mariachi music with lunch. The vistas from the volcan were amazing and we even found a special, unexpected treat at the top. It was a delightful day and Osmaro even helped us with a minor problem the day after our tour _ service above and beyond our expectations.Written 23 January 2025
