See the Pompeii of America: Joya de ceren and visit Cerro Verde pantional park with amazing views of volcanoes and a lake in El Salvador

Begin your adventure just steps from your cruise ship at Acajutla Port—your guide will meet you one hour after the ship’s arrival. Travel in comfort to the fascinating archaeological site of Joya de Cerén, a UNESCO World Heritage Site often called the “Pompeii of the Americas,” where you’ll see remarkably preserved remains of a pre-Hispanic village.

At Cerro Verde National Park, embark on a scenic walk along the rim of an extinct volcano, now cloaked in a lush tropical forest. The trail, while not entirely flat, is accessible to most travelers, even with a cane, and features exposed roots, some stairs, and volcanic sand. Rest stops along the path allow you to catch your breath and take in spectacular views of Santa Ana Volcano, the shimmering Coatepeque Lake, and the dramatic Izalco Volcano. This guided walk lasts 45 minutes to one hour and is perfect for photography enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

This all-inclusive shore excursion includes round-trip transportation, professional guide services, and entrance fees—designed for cruise passengers looking to make the most of their stop in El Salvador.
