"The tour is like an emotional roller coaster, from stories of the civil war and gang violence to crowded and chaotic markets. It's a fantastic way to see San Salvador," commented one of our clients.

We invite you to discover the capital of the country that has changed the most in Latin America, a place that not long ago was known as the murder capital of the world.

Explore the city's most iconic squares, and visit El Rosario church and the National Library, the most modern in Central America!

-Plaza Gerardo Barrios (Meeting point in front of the National Library )
-Plaza Libertad
-El Rosario Church (Entrance NOT included: $1 USD for locals, $2 USD for foreigners)
-Metropolitan Cathedral
-Archbishop Romero’s Crypt

*Wear comfortable shoes for a 3-hour walk.

Tour muy recomendable

Nuestro guía Diego nos explicó muy bien la historia de la ciudad y de los edificios más emblemáticos. Muy interesantes tambien las explicaciones sobre el cambio político y seguridad en el país. Diego fue muy amable y atento. Recomiendo hacer el tour si vienes a San Savador.

A must do for anyone coming to visit!

This tour was the best decision I made! Steffany was so wonderful and accommodating. Her knowledge of the city and history was unmatched and she kept a great pace for everyone to see and wander where we want to and move on when everyone was done. I never felt rushed and would absolutely do again.

Great overview of the country from foundation until today

The guide arrived 10 minutes late, which worried me a little, but after that I really, really enjoyed the tour. In addition to visiting the sites, there was great insight into the old as well as more recent history of El Salvador. I felt like I learned a great deal about the country and would definitely recommend to others.
