Unfortunately, my...

Ashanti_W, Nov 2025

Unfortunately, my experience was not the best. The only person in the group who did not speak Spanish was myself (my friend turned back). When I enquired over WhatsApp if the guide spoke English, they replied that the guide did, but the bus driver did not. However, communication was challenging because nobody spoke English at all. We weren't picked up by a bus either. They kept calling it a bus, but it was actually a taxi driver. When I inquired for trekking poles, they replied 100Q on WhatsApp, but when we arrived, it was 150Q. Overall would not recommend.

Excellent experience with some very good guides

I thoroughly enjoyed this trip! The guides did an excellent job of balancing the movement of our group. They were intentional in giving us necessary breaks while not allowing us to overstay such breaks. They were also conscious of the various degrees of experience and physical abilities of each group member, often being encouraging versus being harsh or leaving group members behind behind like I've heard other guides with other companies do. The meals provided were more than sufficient and base camp was more than acceptable, particularly after a long hike up the volcano. Finally, the early morning hike up the summit was well worth it! I would highly recommend this particular company and guides to lead you up and down from the volcano!

Let's give it a try!

Thanks, it was really great. Benjamin is an excellent guide with 12 years of experience, and the route is not very difficult. Let's give it a try!

MUST DO!

Julian_H, Aug 2024

Definitely a must-do if you’re staying in Guatemala. WARNING: this is not a leisurely hike. If you are an inexperienced hiker or not in good health, this might be quite challenging. Several people in groups had to turn back due to the intensity of the hike. Pack extra socks as it might rain. Water proof everything! Extra portable chargers. Otherwise, best tour ever!

A experience worth the money

Big thanks to my tour guides Benjamin & Atom. They had all necessary gear for the hike that you can rent. The group was given lunch and dinner to carry for the hike. This hike is challenging, I caught cramps in both legs half way up and Benjamin and Atom did everything in their power to help me work through the discomfort. They were equipped with meds and ointments that help with my cramps. The food provided for lunch and dinner was so tasty and breakfast was made fresh with coffee or tea. The cabin and tents were equipped with clean sleeping bags ☺️. Overall this company is a 10/10 I have no complaints about how this company operates.
