Worth the effort.
William_S, Apr 2024
If you never done hiking I recommend bring cash to rent horse to help with the climbing, the climbing is a work out but is worth the effort. Cesar is an excellent guide. I recommend this tour.

Amazing trip with the best tour guides
Penelope_M, Jan 2024
Marlon who drove us up to Pacaya and Dilan who was our tour guide really made the trip for us. Both were super friendly, good fun and knowledgeable. We were picked up on time and Marlon had food/snacks/drinks galore in the van for us. Dilan set a good pace and shared his knowledge of the volcano and surrounding area with us. The walk is a sustained climb through the woods until you reach the peak but there are plenty of rest points, you definitely need good shoes, longer socks than I took but we didn't feel that we needed a jacket/long trousers on (25 degree day on January) but we're used to winter in England! We would 100% recommend the tour and using the same company for any other tours in the area.
Good Tour
Jennifer_E, Jan 2023
We left from Antigua and our driver was friendly and knowledgeable and stopped in a small village on the way for us to take pictures. He would have made additional stops as well upon request. The guide, Cesar, was very interesting and gave a wonderful look into the lives of Guatemalen people, as well as gave good information on the local flora, fauna and volcanos (recent and prior eruptions and lava flows). Great trip.
Pacaya is a must-do when in Antigua
dchappas, Jun 2022
Our driver was safe, knowledgeable and informative and made the drive enjoyable. He brought a variety of snacks and drinks for us to take on the hike and for afterwards. At Pacayo, our guide Cesar took us on an informative, educational, cultural and engaging journey to the recent lava flows above. He shared personal stories and made us feel like we participated in a true cultural exchange. It was cloudy at the top but we were blessed with no rain. This tour is a must-do and be sure to ask for guide Cesar.
