About this tour
Often overshadowed by its neighbours, El Salvador is a hidden gem in Central America. From turtle nesting on the peaceful coastline, to volcanoes concealing deep crater lakes and colonial villages dishing up delicious food, this country has earned a spot on our Latin America bucket list. Jiquilisco Bay - Take part in a turtle-monitoring project with a local biologist. Santa Ana Volcano - Hike up El Salvador's highest volcano for views of the surrounding valley. Suchitoto - Learn to make traditional pupusas like a local in this charming village.
