Tour description

Visiting San Salvador nowadays is a must, after all of the changes we have had for the last 7 years we can assure you will find a very modern and fast growing city. 
We will visit Parque Cuscatlan, church of ¨Sagrado Corazon¨, we will visit the Hospital area, walk through an university campus, taste the food and drinks of the central market, get to kilometer 0 where we will see the national palace, metropolitan catedral, public library, gerardo barrios plaza, morazan plaza and libertad plaza where we will be able to see the number one attraction in downtown San Salvador, the Rosario chuch ($2.00 entrance fee per person)
We will have a great tour, we will laugh and best of all we will make new friends. 

Important reminders about this tour:
PS: Please bring some sort of skirt if you bring shorts to cover your legs, so you can come in to some of the churches if you are a lady. 
On Mondays the Cuscatlan park is closed, so we will meet at the main entrance located on Alameda Franklyn  D. Roosevelt next to the bus stop.
On Sundays Rosario church has mass services, unfortunately no visits are allowed to tourists until the next day.

Dave is the best guide we’ve ever had on a walking tour. He was enthusiastic about his country and so knowledgeable about its history. He took us through the central market area and recommended we try the sweet drinks available there. Highest recommendation!!

The tour with Dave was amazing - one of the best walking tours we’ve ever been on. He was friendly, fun and gave us lots of interesting and clear information. He answered all of our questions brilliantly and I came away knowing so much more about the country. Thank you Dave!

We did Dave’s walking tour as soon as we arrived in San Salvador and it was the perfect introduction to the lovely city. Dave was a super knowledgeable, interesting and funny tour guide and we learnt so much about the city and its changes over the last few years. If you’re ever in San Salvador, this is a great tour to take - would recommend!

We got to see a lot of places in a short amount of time, and even tried an El Salvadorian quesadilla. David was very informative and fun and kept things interesting. He also gave us good recommendations on where to go after the tour.
