Had an amazing time with our tour guide Alfredo Diaz! He was very informative and hospitable he also takes amazing photos as well. Will definitely reach out to book another tour with him when we come back to visit with our kids!
Wonderful, we look forward to welcoming you soon.
So far, more than satisfied with the service and the beautiful experience of learning about my history and national origin.
Gracias por tomar la excursión con InterTours, nos alegra saber que está disfrutando.
Good well planned itinerary that takes guests to a good variety of places. Joya de Ceren is very unique to the Americas and is a must for those interested in archaeology and history. The lunch spot was at a restaurant with a gorgeous up close view of a lake. The only drawback to the tour was the hot muggy weather and the afternoon traffic.
Thank you for choosing our tour. They will finish the expressway soon.
This is a great tour! We learned a lot and enjoyed seeing all of the sites. The guide was very knowledgeable and made sure we were comfortable during the whole day.

Had a wonderful time on this excursion. Our guide, Julio, was great. He arrived on time to pick us up from our hotel, car was clean. Julio really knows his history about El Salvador. We learned a lot. And he took us to eat some really great food. I needed the tour to be in English and Julio accommodated that with no issues. We highly recommend him.
