El Salvador with EC Tours Jan. 2025 - We went on a 4 days tour with EC Tours. (San Salvador,Ruta de las Flores, Volcano tour, 2 tour of Ruins) Lisbeth was our tour guide she was wonderful such an amazing person she is bilingual, informative and friendly and took care of me and each of my family members. Our driver Manuel made sure we were comfortable and safe on the road. I highly recommend EC Tours their personnel (Vanessa) were accommodating from the beginning easy to work with. In fact see you all next year!!

Custom day with Gerson and William from EC Tours - We were checking out from our hotel in El Zonte and needed to go to Ataco. We didn't want to drive ourselves, so we hired EC Tours to bring us on a Ruta de las Flores tour for that journey! We had a great day with Gerson (guide) and William (driver). Neither my friend nor I drinks coffee, so we asked to go to the Santa Teresa hot springs instead of the coffee tasting. It was no problem to make that change. While we were on the tour, Gerson was able to call the hot springs to make us massage appointments. We stopped at a few cute towns and learned their history (and ate their food)! I have been studying Spanish for four years, so I asked Gerson to do the tour in Spanish. He spoke slowly for us and switched to English whenever we didn't know a word. His English is fantastic by the way. Gerson's helpfulness didn't end after our tour though. The day after the tour it was SO RAINY, so we decided to go back to Santa Teresa for more massages/spa treatments. Gerson once again helped us make reservations even though he was no longer our guide. We had a great time and learned a lot. Thank you Gerson and William!

Wonderful Private Tour - EC Tours did wonderful, they accommodated my trip on short notice and adjusted to any suggestions I had! I met a few of their guides and even the owner. Everyone was very kind, answered plenty of questions, and shared so much information about El Salvador. I would absolutely recommend! First day was San Salvador walking tour and airport transfer. Second day was Santa Ana Volcano and lake day with hotel transfer. Third day was Ruta de las Flores. Final day was San Salvador Volcano and airport transfer.

Highly Recommend - Highly recommend this tour. There are some really beautiful places including the (very reasonable priced) lunch restaurant & easy mini hike around the plantation & gardens. Gerson was a fantastic bilingual tour guide as well.

Awesome tour and guide! - We were picked up on time in a very comfortable van. It was just another tourist with us so small and intimate group. Gerson is so knowledgeable about the history and culture of El Salvador. He was very nice and filled with positive energy. Strongly recommend this tour and Gerson!

Great experience with Gerson - Gerson was an outstanding guide for this tour. He was very knowledgeable about the country's history as well as the significance of the sights seen on this day. Also provided good advice for other things to do within San Salvador and the beach areas. Overall, it was a good tour to see Rutas de las Flores!

Must do in El Salvador - I am a world traveler and took this tour when I was in San Salvador. First of all EC tours communicated very well on WhatsApp to book this tour. Our guide was Gerson. He was very informative and interactive. He is a teacher by profession and it shows in his delivering the information. His choice of restaurant for lunch and other recommendations were very helpful. I would definitely recommend Gerson as a guide and EC Tours in El Salvador. It takes you in rural mountainous part of El Salvador away from the city.
