“BOOK IT NOW!!”

The best thing I can write here is: BOOK THE TOUR WITH DAVE. You will not regret it, you get so much insight from a local's POV about the country's history, current shift and its future. He's really passionate about EL Salvador's progress and he really helps you understand what they've been through and why they appreciate respectful tourists and visitors so much. Book the tour, take walking shoes and a couple of extra bucks to buy some coffee, pupusas and other stuff Dave may recommend along the way. Thanks Dave for an awesome 3 hour-tour that we will never forget. See you soon again, my friend! - Diana & Nacho.

“Great and Informative Tour”

I really enjoyed the walking tour with Dave and Issac. Scary times back a few decades that most will not know about. They are both very upbeat and positive about the future of the city, and it shows in the pride of the tour. Thanks, amigos!

“Free walking tour with Dave”

This tour is a must-see. The tour guide is very engaging and his helper Isaac is great! The history and information provided by the guide is essential to anyone traveling here that wants to get to know this country. He puts more effort into imparting and engaging tourists than any tour we've had here. He keeps the tour on track all the way without making anyone feel rushed . Phenomenal!

“A Must Do- You will not regret it”

You HAVE to check out Dave's walking tour. First off, the dude is super chill and friendly. He was on time (no waiting around!), and you can instantly tell he loves his city. We learned SO much about San Salvador that I never would have known, just wandering around on my own. His knowledge of San Salvador's history, culture, and hidden gems is remarkable. We learned so much about the city – from its past, present, and to its vibrant future. Dave knows all the cool history, the best spots to eat, and even some hidden gems that only locals know about. He was really good at answering questions, and you can tell he's passionate about sharing his knowledge. Just a heads up: you'll be doing a fair bit of walking, so wear some comfy shoes! But honestly, it's the best way to see the city and soak it all in.

“Amazing tour, amazing person”

We took the walking tour with Dave this week. He was so kind, fun and engaging. My two teenagers loved the tour as well. We learned so much about all the positive developments that really changed the lives of the El Salvadoreans for the good! He took us to get local drinks, toured the old historical center, and churches. We really learned so much. Dave delivers the information in such a funny and captivating way. He also helped me pre-trip by recommending to us a local driver! Thanks Dave. :)

“Great tour, great guide—highly recommended!”

If you’re looking for a fantastic way to explore San Salvador while getting the scoop on the city’s exciting transformation, Dave’s free city tour is a must! We kicked things off with a walk from Cuscatlán Park to the historic center, where Dave, with his enthusiasm and sharp knowledge, gave us the most on all the positive changes the Bukele government has brought in over the last six years. He made even the details about safety and opportunities for the locals sound fun! Dave’s energy was infectious, and his insights kept us engaged the whole time. Plus, the grand finale? We closed the tour with a delicious, mouth-watering pupusa from a local street stand. Great tour, great guide—highly recommended!
