Have you ever climbed an Active Volcano? Don’t you think that today is the best opportunity to do something different and get a once in a lifetime experience? If you´re planning something to do with the entire family or if you´re a solo traveler, Pacaya Volcano is the best experience for you.
Just 1 hour and 30 minutes away from Guatemala City, Pacaya Volcano is one of the easiest possible hikes in Guatemala. Its smooth activity allows visitors to approach the Lava coals, the smoking cone, and enjoy the great views of other Volcanoes, Lake Amatitlán, and the City.
If mother nature allows you, you will experience lava rivers. Hands down, this is an activity that you can´t let pass.

Guide (David) was amazing. Driver (Brian) very friendly and even early for pickup. Had a wonderful tour. I went alone and was given a lot of history and ecology of Pacaya during the tour. I plan to come back with my wife and book again. 10/10 would highly recommend this guide and driver.

The tour was an incredible experience. You are up close to lava beds that are as recent as from 2021. The views of three volcano (2 active) are spectacular. Minor, my guide, was excellent. He was very engaged throughout the journey, had great suggestions for photos, and took beautiful ones of me with breathtaking views in the background.
BTW, there are horses available to make the rather intense climb up the mountain. I strongly recommend hiring one...
