Ruins of West El Salvador - This was an awesome tour, specifically the Joya de Ceren ruins. They call it the "Pompeii of South America" because everything was covered beneath layers of volcanic ash, so it's perfectly preserved. Because of this, you're able to see normal houses and living buildings, not just massive stone temples. After that we went and saw some other sites, the last one in Tazumal was really well preserved too, this is a huge stone temple. If you're into history and ruins, this is a great tour and our guide Roberto was very knowledgeable and spoke fluent English.
