Alfredo our tour guide was very knowledgeable and patient. We love to take photos, and he was like our personal photographer. We enjoyed the Food Fest in Juayúa and the variety, taste and price of the food (very economical for the portion of the plates). We learned a lot on the coffee tour and enjoyed the cup of coffee. ☕️ The market in Nahuizalco was an amazing experience and learning about the indigenous history of El Salvador. Alfredo even took us to a yucca place in Salcoatitán to try yucca with all the fixings since Salcoatitán is known for their yucca. Don’t miss one of El Salvador’s most popular tours. Great for avid coffee lovers!

Alfredo is a wonderful and deeply knowledgable tour guide who has created such a cool experience. I was born in ES and even I learned so much about my rich history and my boyfriend (from the US) had a blast learning about the coffee culture out here. I cant recommend this trip to Ruta de las Flores enough if you want to visit our beautiful country and experience it through the lens of locals who are passionate and kind like Alfredo. ¡Que chivo!

Alfredo is just incredible! I am very thankful to have ran into his profile while researching for tours in El Salvador. He is, trustworthy, reliable and extremely educated. He gave us a clear historical background of El Salvador, the customs, traditions and values of the locals. Aside from the educational aspect of this tour, Alfredo was able to show us several gems that were not part of our tour books. My partner and I are confident in rebooking with Alfredo, for future tours. If anyone is looking for a personal tour that feels educational, unbelievably unique and exclusive- look no further- Alfredo is your guy! Much love, Zoey and Alex :)
