Street Food Tour in Ruta de las Flores and Laguna Verde

What can I say… Wow! This tour exceeded our expectations the we visited a few towns and a small lake as well. In hindsight, we could have skipped the small lake and spent more time in one or two of the villages we visited; eating and enjoying more of the village vibes. We fell in love with the people the food and the accompanying hospitality. Endless thanks to Samuel; knowable, kind, courteous, and a gem of a human being, best tour guide & driver.

Sammy es el crack de los tours! I 100% recommend taking this day tour, you’ll learn so much and will eat some great Salvadoran food.

This is an absolute must when you come to El Salvador. We got to try all different types of food and really immerse ourselves in the local culture. Our guide, Samuel, was the best. He was very knowledgeable, friendly, and made us feel comfortable throughout our tour. When we had a question, he had an answer. Do not miss out and make sure you book this tour.

Coming back to my mother land after 30years and having the experience u had with Samuel was unforgettable. He is so informative, so knowledgeable and so pleasant. The amount of information he gave me made me feel closer to my family and my roots. Being able to understand where my people came from and what they went through to be were we are now is amazing. It makes be so proud to be from El Salvador. And thanks to Samuel i was able to feel closer to my land. He made it so easy. Thank you so much Samuel. Your an asset to the company you work for. Hope to do this again with you as our guide.

All I really would like to say is I know more of El Salvador now then when I lived here. Samuel is knowledgeable enough to satisfy my curiosity.

Sam was excellent very respectful he was very informative. He answered our questions without a doubt and if he did not know the answer which was rare he would say respectfully he did it know but he would find out. He was funny always very attractive. He asked us always if we needed anything or we needed to stop to use the rest room. He deserves a big fat raise lol and a bonus 🥹

Sammy is a fantastic guide. He tailored the experience to my tastes and ended up showing me my new favorite sweet treat. He also had a lot of great information to share, and helped me improve my Spanish speaking skills along the way. 100% worth it!

Expedition Maya is an excellent tour company! They cater based on your wants and desires, making sure you have a great time! My guide Elisa accommodated all my requests on my itinerary and tour was fully private!

We had such an amazing day! We got to see so many things and eat so many delicious foods! Our tour guide and driver went above and beyond. Highly recommend booking this tour!

I recently had the joy of taking a tour of El Salvador’s stunning Ruta de las Flores, and I cannot recommend it highly enough. From beginning to end, the experience was curated with so much care, charm, and thoughtfulness that it felt less like a typical tour and more like being warmly welcomed into the heart of the country. The itinerary itself was beautifully paced—never rushed, yet always engaging. Each stop along the route offered something new and delightful, whether it was wandering through colorful colonial towns, exploring bustling local markets, tasting the most delicious coffee, or admiring the vibrant murals that bring the streets to life. What struck me most was how the tour wove together history, culture, art, and nature in such a seamless way. Nothing felt surface-level; every detail and explanation made me appreciate El Salvador more deeply. Of course, what truly elevated the experience was our guide, Elisa. From the very first moment, she radiated kindness and warmth, making everyone feel comfortable and included. She is incredibly knowledgeable—her explanations of history, culture, and traditions were insightful and intelligent, yet always delivered in such an approachable and engaging way. She had a wonderful gift for storytelling, turning facts into meaningful narratives that really stuck with me. You could tell she deeply loves and respects her country, and that passion made the entire journey so much more inspiring. By the end of the day, I felt not only that I had seen the beauty of the Ruta de las Flores, but that I had experienced it in a way that was personal, meaningful, and unforgettable. If you are considering a tour in El Salvador, I wholeheartedly encourage you to choose this company—and if you are lucky enough to have Elisa as your guide, you are in for a truly special experience.
