This is my second time going to El Salvador. My family is from El Salvador. My mother left in 1989 when she was pregnant with me, during the civil war. It was her first time going back to her home country since she left. It was a surreal experience to her, seeing how much her country as changed. El Salvador is beautiful and welcoming.
Posted: July 6, 2024Experienced: February, 2024I traveled alone to El Salvador and it was an amazing surprise. It's beautiful, and people are very friendly and hospitable. I never felt unsafe, even at night in San Salvador. I really enjoyed it.
Posted: October 17, 2023The people I met were super nice, the landscapes, activities, everything was very beautiful. The only thing is that because they use the American dollar, the prices seemed high to me. But the place is definitely worth it. I highly recommend renting a car as well. We were there for 9 days, and I think that was too much, 7 days is perfect to see everything.
Posted: September 18, 2023I went on a four-day solo trip to Salvador and I really enjoyed it. I usually do things on my own, renting a car, but I decided to book a four-day custom tour (with a guide and transport) and I felt 100% safe. I visited beautiful waterfalls, charming towns, good volcano trails, drank great coffee, etc.
Posted: September 11, 2023I loved El Salvador. I spent a long weekend in El Tunco, enjoying the beach. I went surfing, visited waterfalls, and ate all the pupusas. I just travelled there by bus. Then I hired a driver who took me to the ruins, visited Cotepeque, climbed the Santa Ana volcano, climbed Cerro Verde and went on the Flower Route.

Is same to any other country where there’s parts very safe and must goes, and parts where the country in still healing from post-war gang situation that affected us years ago. Is always important to travel wisely and then you can be complete safe and ready to enjoy a beautiful magical exotic place like my little beautiful country 🌺
