Uniqueness and enjoyable - I highly recommend hiking Santa Ana Volcano in El Salvador to see its unique crater lake. the crater lake view is very much worth the accessible hike up. You also get a great view of Volcan de Izalco while climbing up.

Exciting climbing to Santa Ana’s summit and delicious lunch in front of Coatepque’s Lake - The whole experience was amazing. Fernando was kind and patient towards the whole group. We reached the summit without any problems and later, after descending, we went to a beautiful spot in front of Coatepeque’s lake to have lunch.

Great experience at the Volcano 🌋 - The views are magnificent, it is very satisfying to reach the top after a tired walk. It's worth it! To get there you can take a bus from San Salvador which would drop you off at the detour to the park area.

Great Tour & Guide - The tour was very well organised. Fernando was absolutely amazing with his historical facts about Salvador, the volcanos and also things to do in Salvador. He was prompt on time for pickup and also took great care of us. The hike up the volcano was challenging but worth it.
