    We toured the Acatenango volcano in 4x4, both the climb and the descent and the experience was very good. During the climb, our driver stopped at a viewpoint so we could enjoy the views we had of the Water Volcano before continuing our way to the campsite. Once we arrived at the camp we had a cabin with some very comfortable mattress bunk beds, as well as another cabin that doubled as a dining room and social space with stunning views of the Volcano of Fire, as it had very wide windows from which to observe the whole environment. We were also offered to walk to a nearby area where we could enjoy the sunset in a group and with privileged views. They give you the option to climb to the top to see the sunrise, although we decided to enjoy it from camp and the experience was awesome. We recommend 100% doing the Acatenango tour with Pachamama Tours!!

    It was all worth it, the guides were very friendly and have a lot of experience, the right facilities for the type of adventure it is, they had everything ready to welcome us and after each tour they welcomed us with warm food, we didn't go cold, it really was very pleasant and I felt comfortable and safe. The view from the camp leaves you breathless is an experience to be lived at least once in your life

    It was an amazing experience, really going beyond our bounderies. We wanted to do this with our son of 9 yrs and were well advised bij the crewmembers. Fransisco was our personal guide and he was really fun to hike with. We went up in 4hrs and down in 2. Fuego was heavy after already hiking to basecamp but so worth it! Epic place so close to the krater on moon like landscape. We would do this again for sure. Thank you Pachamama!

    Excellent guided tour provided by locals who have a great knowledge of the mountain and are patient to keep pace / wait with you.. Any extra equipment is provided at the hostel should you require it, (Jackets hats gloves headlamps etc) but i would strongly advise bringing your own equipment. Food was provided lunch, dinner and breakfast which was all simple and delicious. The food contained meat which not all tour companies provide! (Most are vegan) The wooden huts were simple yet effective, you’re not exactly going to to have a 5 star hotel at the top! But the sleeping bags, blankets and pillow was sufficient. Unfortunately the weather and Fuego volcano eruptions wasn’t on our side but these things you can’t control. Compared to other tour companies our group was small and personal! Would recommend to friends and families.

    Acatenango, La Soledad

    Your journey begins with a comfortable 45–60 minute shared minibus ride from our office to La Soledad, followed by an ascent to basecamp via a shorter route used by only a few selected agencies. By avoiding the most demanding section of the mountain, the hike becomes more scenic, more enjoyable, and far less exhausting, allowing you to arrive at camp with more energy to fully enjoy the experience. This also makes it a great option for guests who want to add the Fuego hike in the afternoon, one of the most dramatic highlights of the adventure. Upon arrival at basecamp, each group must provide 1 liter of water to the guide for the preparation of warm drinks. In the evening, relax by the fire with hot chocolate, enjoy a hearty dinner, and rest in our new cabins for up to 6 guests, with sleeping bags and glass doors facing the volcano. Our guides speak basic English; a bilingual guide is available at an additional cost. Wake up to fresh mountain air and unforgettable volcano views at dawn.

    Fuego Volcano

    Experience the thrill of standing just 200 meters from Fuego Volcano’s eruptions on this adventurous 3.5-hour round trip! At an altitude of 3,768 meters (12,362 feet), this hike offers a safe yet awe-inspiring vantage point to witness one of Guatemala’s most active volcanoes. Departing at 4 PM, the hike requires intermediate fitness and takes you to the volcano, where you’ll spend 30 minutes watching the eruptions up close. Participants must come prepared with water, a jacket, and a headlamp, as this is a difficult hike. For safety reasons, travelers are not allowed to approach Fuego alone—doing so will immediately end the trip to ensure everyone’s well-being. The price is Q300 per person and Q700 for solo travelers.

    Turistico Volcan Acatenango

    Wake up at 4:00 AM for the optional summit hike and, weather permitting, experience a breathtaking sunrise over the volcanic landscape. The summit visit usually includes around 45 minutes to take in the views before descending back to basecamp for a hot breakfast. After breakfast, the group begins the descent to La Soledad, with return to Antigua around 12:00 PM. Please note that summit access always depends on weather and safety conditions, so in some cases we may not go up. Because this is a collective tour, at least half of the group must agree to do the summit hike in order for it to take place. We are not able to change this policy for individual guests. If you would like to go to the summit regardless of how many other guests join, a private guide can be arranged for an additional Q700.

    Duration 180 minutes
    Admission Admission Included

    The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
