Amazing time! this trip gave me a little bit of what El Salvador has to offer. When I go back, I will take my time to explore more. Thank you Chelo for the hospitality, Punta Elefante was gorgeous 😀

If you’ve been thinking of going on one of Chelo’s trips- go for it! It was such a unique experience to be able to go on a trip that was fully planned out from start to finish. All I had to do was relax and enjoy. What a wonderful opportunity to travel while getting to connect with like-minded people.

Wonderful trip, perfectly balanced between adventure and chill. The best part was I didn’t have to think or plan a thing. Felt super safe as a solo traveler with the group and with an amazing leader Chelo. Don’t miss out on experiencing traveling with him and making new travel friends!

Incredible 10-Day Portugal Trip with Instrumental Trips My wife and I had an amazing 10-day adventure through Portugal thanks to Chelo from Instrumental Trips and our fantastic guide Gonzi from Wonder Lisbon. From Lisbon to Porto, Fatima to the Algarve, every stop was thoughtfully planned and full of unforgettable moments. Gonzi’s passion for Portugal was contagious — he brought history to life, introduced us to hidden gems, and even shared places special to his own family. Chelo made sure everything ran smoothly, from logistics to dining, so all we had to do was enjoy. Highlights included the São João Festival in Porto, a blessing at Fatima, delicious local dishes like percebes and Francesinhas, and jaw-dropping coastal views. If you want a personalized, enriching, and stress-free experience in Portugal, Instrumental Trips is the way to go. We can’t recommend them enough!

If you want to truly explore a country, Chelo is the person to book a trip with. This trip to El Salvador was incredible! Every day was packed with fun and unique activities, and the places we stayed were top-notch. What I loved most was the variety in the itinerary each day felt like a completely new adventure. The trip struck a perfect balance between relaxing vacation time and immersive travel experiences. One moment you're unwinding, and the next, you're deep in the heart of El Salvador, connecting with the culture and taking in the natural beauty. Chelo himself? He feels like that old friend you haven’t seen in a while—fun, kind, helpful, and genuinely invested in making sure you have an unforgettable experience. Booking this trip with Chelo was one of the best decisions I’ve made in a long time. I hope others get to have an experience as amazing as mine!
