Getting from San Salvador Airport (SAL) to Santa Tecla takes about 55 min by car on an empty road (55–65 min in heavy traffic) over 55 km via CA-2 and CA-4. Our private transfer costs €70 for a car with 1–3 passengers or €100 for a van with 4–8 — the vehicle price you see is the price you pay at booking.
On arrival: The driver waits in the public arrivals area of the passenger terminal, just outside the customs exit, holding a sign with your name. If the flight is late, the driver adjusts to the real landing time; 60 minutes of waiting are included and help with the luggage is part of the service.
Santa Tecla, also known by its former name Nueva San Salvador, is the capital of La Libertad department and adjoins San Salvador on its south-western side, at the foot of the San Salvador volcano. The trip from the airport is about 55 km: one usual way runs west along the coast to the port of La Libertad and then climbs north on the highway to Santa Tecla, while another goes through the southern outskirts of San Salvador and Antiguo Cuscatlán. Both meet heavier traffic close to the city.
The town centre is compact, built around Parque San Martín, the Palacio Municipal and the El Carmen church. Paseo El Carmen, a street closed to cars in the evenings and at weekends, is lined with cafes, restaurants and craft stalls. Residential neighbourhoods and shopping centres extend towards Ciudad Merliot and Antiguo Cuscatlán, and a winding road leads from Santa Tecla up to El Boquerón National Park on the rim of the volcano's crater.
Public transport: CEPA, the airport operator, lists on its official pages only parking, authorised car rental and VIP services for El Salvador International Airport and publishes no public bus or rail service from the terminal.
