one of the best walking tours i have ever done. Eric - the tour guide was brilliant - very professional, and very educational tour. He showed me some fabulous places and we were not rushed - so plenty of time for pictures wherever we stopped. I highly recommend this tour with Eric.

I recently had the pleasure of joining Dave’s Guru Walking Tour, and I can’t recommend it enough! Dave is incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and current events of El Salvador. He shared so many fascinating insights that you wouldn’t get from just reading a guidebook. His passion for the country really shines through, and he made the entire tour both informative and engaging. On top of that, he was super friendly, approachable, and made everyone feel comfortable asking questions. Whether you’re visiting El Salvador for the first time or just want to deepen your understanding of this beautiful country, this tour with Dave is a must. Five stars!

We enjoyed Dave very much. We were late to our start of the tour because our rented car broke. Dave and the rest of the guests waited for us almost an hour and a half. Although we missed our starting point and we really wanted to experience meeting at the park, we had a great time.

Dave was a great tour guide! He gave us so many information about El Salvador as well as from him, how he felt about the civil war. He explained everything really good about how his country is getting better again and recovering from the corruption days. What the president all does so it gets better. Dave is a passioned tour guide! We can only recommend him and his tour.

Really relaxed, informal and fun tour. Erick is very personal and made the time fly by. Got some great snacks and coffee along the way too. Would definitely recommend!

Dave was charming, entertaining and knew a lot of the recent history. He also helped us to find local restaurants. Very much recommended!

Somos Fredy y Natalia Muy buena explicación, mi novia dice que azucena era muy chistosa. En general nos sentimos muy cómodos.

Great way to learn about th history of El Salvador and to visit a few places you wouldn't likely go otherwise. Very informative and Mariela was endlessly patient with us and our limited Spanish speaking skills. I highly recommend it as it sets the context for area and helps you better understand the city. The introduction to the air conditioned coffee shop in the library was also most welcome.

Awesome time, great fun and informative..also samples some great food. Would highly recommend.

The tour with Dave was very good! He’s super enthousiastic and can explain you everything about the city and the country’s history! Thanks Dave :)

Eric was so good easy going. Good tour

Sehr zu empfehlen, viele persönliche Infos und Tipps

Azucena was excellent her knowledge was exceptional. We were blessed to have her guide us. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful experience on the walking tour of the historic center of San Salvador with Mercy as our guide. She was incredibly professional, attentive, and knowledgeable. Throughout the tour, she shared insightful and well-explained information about the history of El Salvador and the significance of various buildings and landmarks we visited. The tour started at a charming park that served as the meeting point—an enjoyable spot to relax and get oriented before diving into the city’s rich culture. Mercy’s recommendations for local food and drinks were spot-on—everything we tried was absolutely delicious! Overall, this tour exceeded our expectations. Mercy’s passion for her city really shined through, making the experience both educational and enjoyable. I highly recommend this walking tour to anyone visiting San Salvador. It’s a fantastic way to connect with the city's history and flavor.

Ha sido maravilloso

Dave is the best! His tour is very informative and personable. He answered any questions we had and showed us all around the heart of San Salvador.

What a great tour we had today with Dave. Learned a lot and got information about the city. The history and how it is now. What the changes are for the locals. We had a lot of fun and got a lot of tips. Thanks Dave!

I had an incredible time on this tour! Learning about this city and it's history - both distant and recent - from a local was a very eye-opening and unforgettable experience. It was definitely the highlight of my time in San Salvador! Carlos was knowledgable about many topics on the tour from the architectural styles of the buildings to the historical roots upon which the city was founded to the present day local customs. He was thus able to tailor the tour to my interests as well, which was really fantastic for an American being in Central America for the first time. I can't recommend this tour enough! Especially for anyone who is interested in learning about the culture of modern Salvadorians and what has shaped that culture through history.
