- El Boqueron National Park - Situated at the summit of the San Salvador volcano, El Boqueron National Park is easily accessible, with a road leading to a parking area just 10 minutes from the top. Enjoy the pleasant climate on the way up, and remember to bring a sweater. The trails are adorned with beautiful flowers, and at the summit, there are three viewpoints offering spectacular views of the volcano’s crater.
The crater of the San Salvador volcano is the deepest in the country. Visitors will learn about its eruptive history, geological formation, and the volcanic nature of El Salvador.
- Centro Histórico de SS - This area showcases architectural gems with European and neo-colonial influences. Visitors will explore La Plaza Barrios, located in the heart of San Salvador, and experience the daily life of Salvadorans.

This location is a fusion of art, history, culture, and tradition, making it an architectural treasure of the continent.
- Iglesia El Rosario - A must-see attraction in San Salvador. From the outside, this religious building may appear abandoned or dilapidated, with architecture that seems unlike a church.

This is undoubtedly a must-visit spot in San Salvador.

Excellent Tour with Herbert - I toured with Herbert today and it was an excellent experience. He guided us through El Salvador’s highlights including Devil’s Door, the Rainbow Slide, the Historic Center and a Volcano. He translated in both English and Spanish for our group which made the tour easy for everyone to follow. He was knowledgeable and shared great information at each stop.
If you book this tour I definitely recommend asking for Herbert specifically. He made the experience smooth engaging and memorable.

Our tour guide, Osmaro,... - Our tour guide, Osmaro, was absolutely amazing! He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable throughout the trip and even took incredible photos of us along the way.
A quick tip—this tour doesn’t provide water bottles, so be sure to bring your own. We made several enjoyable stops around San Salvador, and when we asked to visit the new Starbucks, Osmaro was more than happy to take us there.
The slide was both scary and fun—definitely an adrenaline rush, but I’m so glad I did it! For lunch, Osmaro usually takes guests to enjoy pupusas, but since we’d been having them daily, he kindly suggested something different and brought us to Las Brumas. It was a high-end restaurant with delicious food and beautiful scenery—an excellent choice!
Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I can’t recommend Osmaro enough for making it so special.

Amazing Experience - Our San Salvador Tour with Herbert was absolutely amazing! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the history and culture of El Salvador. Every stop, from the Devil’s Door lookout to the San Salvador Volcano, the giant slide, and the Historic Center was unforgettable. Herbert made the experience fun, safe, and personal, giving us plenty of time for photos and local snacks. We learned so much and left with a real appreciation for the country and its people. Highly recommend this tour and especially Herbert for anyone visiting El Salvador!

First time in South America - Osmaro was the perfect guide. He sent the itinerary the day before, picked us up on time, and was kind throughout the tour. The highlight of our tour was when he taught us how the locals eat pupusas !

Great choice!!! - This tour is a choice, showing you the main activities to do in San Salvador, The Main Square is packed with historic buildings, and El Rosario church is a unique style that you must see in and out, the view from up at the devil's gate is excellent to see how San Salvador is surrounded by nature. The slide at Picnic is an adrenaline booster. I highly recommend it. The restaurant has a tremendous view, and food 👌is excellent. we really enjoy our tour.
Herbert, our tour guy was fantastic 👏
