    This is an extremely challenging hike, but rewarding. It was cloudy at the top, but beautiful views on the way up and the way down. The La Union trail offered great views of the entire island. Our guide was very kind and a true mountain goat - he was patient to help and wait for us, I’m sure he could have hiked the volcano in half the time we took. For those who complain their guide wasn’t fluent in English, remember you are in their country, not yours and appreciate the culture.

    Paid a lot for the hike. The score reflects this. Guide was a good person but 50% fluent in English. Not much value to the hike.

    Response from Host, Dec 2025

    We apologized to hear this bad experience sir, we are very truly sorry, but there is no one here who speak 100% English. We try to do our best to get satisfied clients. We hope to see you next time with an English more fluent.

    Challenging but worth it!!

    This hike is VERY challenging, but so rewarding! It is steep, and I did need to use my hands in certain sections as my legs began to tire (still sore 2 days later!). We completed the hike (up & down) in just under 7h with breaks. Donald was a wonderful guide! He was great at keeping me on pace! He also encouraged me to practice my Spanish throughout which was fun! Would absolutely recommend to anyone in good physical condition who is up to the challenge. The top is really spectacular, especially if you are lucky to get a clear view.

    If you’re looking for a challenging hike in Ometepe, this is a challenge for you! Donald hiked this route many times and knew how to navigate through to volcano the peak. Prepared with first aid kit, and food. If you’re not fluent in Spanish, he speaks English very well! Highly recommend!

    Great hiking tour with exceptional guide!

    Stephanie_S, May 2024
    The hike to the peak of the volcano Conception was strenuous, to be honest, but absolutely worth it. Even though there was no view from the top due to the clouds (which is most likely to happen), the view from a bit below was quite spectacular. And my personal highlight: My guide Ronald who made this trip absolutely unique and amazing!

    We went with our homie Donald Doug, he's the man. Weather wasn't the greatest, but I couldn't come to Ometepe and not hike the volcano 🙄 Donnie D is super friendly and informative, I recommend booking Happy Tours if you want a happy tour with a happy ending. Bring good footwear.
