Solo Travel Tips· Confident Solo
San Salvador is Central America's most underrated capital — the Zona Rosa and Colonia Escalón are safe and sophisticated areas with excellent food. The volcanoes (Santa Ana and Izalco) nearby are superb solo day hikes with guides. Solo women should take Uber rather than walking in unfamiliar areas. El Salvadorans are extraordinarily warm and proud of their country's improving safety.
