Had a great half day tour to Suchitoto, a beautiful little colonial market town in El Salvador....weather was great but hot. Adonis Gamez was a friendly guide with a great knowledge of not only Suchitoto, but El Salvador in general and we ( there were only two of us on the tour) learnt a lot from Adonis....Great guide great day....
