el salvador
El Salvador is the smallest country in Central America and one of the least visited, which is part of its appeal. There are volcanoes to hike, crater lakes, coffee towns along the Ruta de las Flores and a Pacific coast known for its surf.
It works well as a few days added to Guatemala or a wider Central American journey.
