I just changed my Tica bus ticket so I can leave a day early. Getting around seeing sights here is difficult without a whole load of $ for taxis.
To visit the local volcano just outside San Salvador, $30 each way. It's only 4 km away.
To get to go up Santa Ana volcano outside the city of the same name it costs $50 one way. That or catch the $1 bus which I tried to do this morning. It didn't arrive and the next one is too late to do the trip as the authorities only allow one ascent a day.
That's all folks.
No wonder so many people don't bother visiting this country, it's ok as a stop of over night to break up long bus journeys or to re-aquaint one's self with Denny's and a variety of other large chain restaurants. But nothing more.
I tried to meet up with some locals through couchsurfing but they all let me down in the end.
What's the point of El Salvador?
