Program details

Visit the imposing San Salvador volcano, the crater known as Boqueron (approx 25 km from San Salvador) with a height of 1893 meters above sea level providing a unique high altitude tropical climate and an impressive scenic beauty. The crater measures 1.5 km. in diameter and it has 560 meters in depth. Enjoy a refreshing eco walk through the natural trails of the national park.


Later, admire the Black Sea (approx. 35 km), a field covered by lava, now volcanic rock, driven by the Boqueron Volcano. Then, move to the “Pompeii of America”, the archaeological site Joya de Ceren, declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1.993. The archaeological site of Joya de Ceren was covered by the Loma Caldera volcano explosion. This explosion allowed to keep the remains of pre-Hispanic civilization for hundreds of years which makes this destination an archaeological relic. What are you waiting for? Come and discover one of the most interesting civilizations in human history.
