Itinerario
Nuestra guía turística los llevara aun lugar muy impresionante, una iglesia única en el mundo en el cual podrá contemplar una arquitectura con diseños únicos y sobre todo la historia que transmite esta hermosa y misterioso templo.
En el año 1545 los pobladores que abandonaron la Villa de San Salvador, en el valle de las Bermudas, establecieron un nuevo asentamiento en el lugar indicado «La Aldea» en el valle de las Hamacas, cerca de la ribera del río Acelhuate. En los años siguientes, la ciudad crecería alrededor de un espacio vacío conocido Plaza Mayor o de Armas que hoy en día es la Plaza Libertad.
La plaza Gerardo Barrios se encuentra ubicada en el centro histórico de la ciudad de San Salvador. La estatua que predomina en el lugar, entregado al presidente Gerardo Barrios, fue creado por Francisco Durini y develada en 1909
Conocerá un templo con una historia única en la cual podemos destacar su historia religiosa como también su historia del conflicto armado del país. Templo en el cual se encuentra la imagen principal del patrón de El Salvador, El Salvador del Mundo
Observamos panorámicamente el Palacio Nacional localizado en el centro histórico de la ciudad capital de El Salvador.1 Se trata de un edificio de dos pisos, de un estilo predominantemente neoclásico, aunque cuenta con algunas decoraciones neorrenacentistas y, en menor medida, neogóticas. Sus portones y otras decoraciones en bronce y hierro son de estilo art nouveau. Por todo esto, no sería descabellado decir que su arquitectura es de carácter ecléctico, aunque, cabe decir, el estilo que prima a la vista es el neoclasicismo.
Tendremos vista panorámica del teatro nacional su construcción finalizó el año de 1911 y terminó en 1917. Es uno de los centros más importantes para las artes escénicas en este país.
Caminamos en el interior de la biblioteca nacional y recorremos sus diferentes niveles, en el lugar aprendemos del nahuat y tenemos diferentes vistas a la ciudad

Jerry, our Law Student tour escort was personable and well-informed. It was an easy walking tour in the central of the city and included the beautiful new library, open markets, Liberty Square and the Cathedral. Even a few moments to enjoy a cup of delicious local coffee in the lower level of the library. Highly recommend.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We’re truly happy to hear that you found the tour comfortable, informative, and enjoyable. Downtown San Salvador has so much history and many beautiful places to discover, like the Cathedral and the new library, and we’re glad you were able to fully enjoy them alongside Jerry. Thank you for your 5-star recommendation. Sending you a warm hug from our entire team!
A great way to start a trip to San Salvador. Our guide was fantastic and we husbands also lucky enough to see the Christmas market. All the people were super nice and the view from the library terrace was fantastic. The highlight, however, were the colors in the church and the art on the Way of the Cross. There's nothing like it.
"Herzlichen Dank für diese fünf Sterne! Wir freuen uns sehr, dass dir die Highlights unseres historischen Zentrums und die Kunst unserer Kirchen so gut gefallen haben. Unser Ziel ist es immer, unvergessliche Erlebnisse zu bieten. Wir hoffen, dich bald wieder in El Salvador begrüßen zu dürfen!"
Geraldo was a great informative guide who explained the learning environment the new library is fostering, the cathedral with Oscar Romero’s mausoleum, and La Iglesia el Rosario. We also stopped at a popular pupusa place. It was a great way to start our trip. Gracias Geraldo.
Thank you so much for leaving us your review! We’re delighted to know that our City Tour was the perfect introduction to your trip around El Salvador. We’ll be sure to pass your thanks along to Geraldo — he’ll be very happy to hear that you enjoyed his explanations about the new library, the Cathedral, and El Rosario Church. And we’re especially glad that pupusas were part of the experience too! It was a true pleasure to guide you, and we hope to welcome you back again soon.
Erick was excellent on this walking tour. He took us all around the city and was knowledgeable about the city’s history. We really enjoyed ourselves! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your excellent review, Katie! We’re truly happy to hear that you enjoyed the walking tour and that Erick’s knowledge of our city’s history made your experience so enjoyable and memorable. For the entire Nahuatours team, it is a real pleasure to share the rich history of San Salvador with our visitors. We’ll make sure to pass your compliments along to Erick right away. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you again in the future!
This Tour was really helpful in order to understand more about the history and story of the popular “Centro Histórico de El Salvador”. My guide was Gerardo Gálvez, we visited Iglesia El Rosario, Plaza Libertad, Plaza Gerardo Barrios, Biblioteca Nacional de El Salvador, Catedral de San Salvador. While visiting those places you will also see other places with beautiful sightseeing and architecture, such as the Palacio Nacional and Jardín de Centro America. Every single place you’ll see has a story about how rich El Salvador was and is. I will recommend you to not just focus on El Rosario Church’s Rainbow Glasses, I know that it is so beautiful but that Church has more history to learn about and the other places you will visit too.
Hello, Ede! What beautiful words you shared about our tour and our country. It fills us with pride to know that, together with Gerardo Gálvez, you were able to appreciate the historical value, stories, and architecture of such iconic places as the National Palace, BINAES, and our main plazas. Your recommendation means so much to us and to other travelers looking for an authentic experience. Thank you very much for choosing Nahuatours, and we wish you many more amazing journeys ahead!
Im going to write a review that was not written yet otherwise I will be repeating myself among the other. The front big long steel gate entrance facing Plaza Libertad is not the entrance – walk to your right [facing the gate] turn left on the corner and carefully watch the black steel gate entrance of the church on your left among all the other stores [I missed it the first time]. There is $2 fee entrance to the church but its worth it. Visited 11/29/24.
thank you for the information , best wishes and many blessings for you and your life!!
This is a great tour if you are interested in history (which I am) The story of Archbishop Romero was interesting. Also got a chance to try some of the pupusus at a small resturaunt not frequested by tourists.
saint Romero is definetly a highlight in our recent history , we have a complete day tour for saint Romero´s history , pupusas are the cherry of the pie , one of the best traditional dishes in latin america, best wishes and blessing to you!!
