With the sole purpose of our visit being to climb the Santa Ana volcano, Finca La Esperanza Coffee Tour was a pleasantly surprising highlight of our time in El Salvador. Situated on the fertile slopes of the volcano, this coffee farm is operated by Eduardo and Bruno, two of the kindest men you'll ever meet. When greeted at our hotel and driven in the back of their pickup truck, we knew we were in for a unique experience. Eduardo provided an excellent English explanation of coffee growth, the business behind it, and his family tradition. He showcased his farm of several acres, including the numerous varieties and ages of coffee plants, his fruits, and beautiful flowers and birds. Meanwhile, Bruno captured the moment on his camera and a link to view the photos was sent via email. Afterwards, a table was prepared for us to enjoy his freshly ground coffee and local baked goods. We purchased coffee to share with our friends back home and appreciate the backbreaking labor required to produce it. Prior to our trip, we were apprehensive about our safety while in El Salvador. Eduardo and Bruno, however, have affirmed our belief that there are many good people in this world. Above all else, Eduardo's coffee, his passion, and sense of friendship transcend our differences as humans. If you are planning to visit El Salvador, you will not regret it, and this coffee tour is a must-do.

It's only 6 dollars plus 1 dollar tip. 1 hour 30 minutes hiking. I couldn't reach to the top cause I was sick. But it's not hard to make it

We came on a Saturday on December 21 with Salvadorean Tours. We got there at 10 am and there were plenty of people arriving already. We stayed for 1 hour and by the time we left, the parking lot was full. Our guide asked a local guide to join us on a loop walk where we went up 2 platforms to see the lagoon. That walk took 50 minutes but at a very leisurely pace. You do have to walk in the forest. We had great views on the platforms and the weather was nice.

The lake is on an ancient volcano with lots of things to do. We used a hostel that had day use amenities so we were able to kayak and jet ski around this beautiful lake.
