Great hike, beautiful views - This was a really nice experience to have! Hiking up the volcano and seeing the sulfur lake is hands down one of the coolest experiences I've ever had. The hike up is a little intense. The first 3/4 of the way is fine because you are walking under the shade, but the last 1/4 is a little rough because it's all sun and it's pretty rocky. You have to mind your step and be careful, take your time. Our tour guide, David, was very patient with us (me and another female solo traveler) and answered all our questions. Afterwards, we had a really nice lunch at a restaurant overlooking the lake. I thought we would go down to the lake, but apparently that's a different excursion. I hope to do that on my next trip to El Salvador. Also shout out to David for being willing to stop on the streetside on the way back so I could buy some Jamaican apples (i.e. Japanese cashews) and some football jerseys for my nephews!

Diego Gómez best tour guid - Im not here to write a review on El Salvador itself, nor the amazing scenery. I’m here to write a review about Diego Gomez. We can all come to agree that El Salvador is beautiful as a whole therefore there’s no reason to critique it. That is why I’m only going to write about Diego. He is an amazing tour guide. He’s patient well informed and knowledgeable about all of El Salvador. He talks about his home country with love and passion. He’s young and full of energy. Give my boy a raise.

10000/10 - The day was truly amazing. Diego was so knowledgeable, kind, and patient as we navigated the hike. He helped us in selecting the best spot for lunch at the lake and gave us ample time to explore and relax before leaving. Diego made sure we were at the volcano early enough so we were not stuck behind larger groups. It was a perfect day

Came for nature, left with fun and knowledge - Absolutely amazing tour with our super patient, knowledgeable, kind and smart tour guide, Diego. He not only picked me up, but took us to the hike where he patiently led us together up to the scenic volcano. The tour was breathtaking and Diego also kindly took pictures of everyone (good ones too! Different angles) while hiking he pointed out various plants and the science behind the volcano as well as tips and insight on traveling throughout ES. We ended the trip with an amazing lunch at a local restaurant that faced the water. Diego explained that this restaurant in particular is popular with locals, but also is perfect for tourists because the owner takes special care for our pallets. Overall, literally a perfect day; nature & food. Thanks Diego!
