    We loved the tour. We were in constant email contact with Fransisco months before our trip. We had a tailor made trip for just the 2 of us. Intertours was very accommodating to each request. Most importantly i felt very safe in the hands of Intertours.

    The tour goes to some incredible places. Copan is beautiful and very worth the trip, definitely a highlight. Joya de Ceren is very interesting. The only reason I said good and not excellent is that itinerary needs some tweaking. There was one day with so much travel, much of which was avoidable, that we didn’t have time for lunch or dinner. I said this to them too, and they told me they’re working to fix it.

    My tour guide Alex was AMAZING. He was polite, helpful, and very knowledgeable about Central American history and culture. One concern: the tour was described as "easy" on the Tour Radar website, and someone with limited mobility would find this trip impossible. There was a person in our group who had a lot of trouble with many activities, leaving the rest of the group waiting very often and not sure how or if to help. It may be best to share in more detail how much walking and physical activity is really included to make the trip safe, comfortable, and enjoyable for everyone. It was "easy" for my friend and me, but it is not easy for people who have mobility issues or need to take frequent breaks.

    An interesting overview of Mayan life. The guides were really great and the experience overall worthwhile. More information about what was available to see, do and places to eat for your free times would have helped

    It’s a nice tour to get a taste of El Salvador and Guatemala. The tour was only for two of us, so kind of nice and private. However sometimes the schedule was not clear and I felt the trip as a whole was a little disorganized. The guide in El Salvador was always on time and friendly, but seemed always rushed, then some other time, the bus was so late and we missed parts of the tour although they made up. It’s a good introduction tour for the regions especially if you don’t speak Spanish and not sure about going around the counties by yourself.

    I really enjoyed this trip. Everything was arranged very well. We had different tour guides everyday but everyone was very nice. The owner of the company Inter Tours was a very decent person. He was very patient working out an itinerary that worked for me. I will definitely use them again and highly recommend them.
