Family travel
Santa Ana is the perfect city to base yourself for a lot of daytrips. We did a city tour with Carlos via the website 'Guru' which included a lot of typical salvadorian food. The other days we went to Salto de Malacatiupan, Concepcion de Ataco, Lago Coatepeque and Tazumal. We rented a car for this which made it easier to come and go since we're a family of six.
