Overview

Privileged early access in small groups As Licensed Guide with 400+ successful summits you can be sure I'm one of the most experienced guides for this destination. The hike goes from the cloud forest on the skirts to the volcanic wasteland at the top. From here you can see the steamy sulfuric-acid lake at the bottom and the multicolored layers of ash on the walls of the crater and Coatepeque caldera lake. Beyond just a walk, this is an interpretative hike. Learn facts of geology, eruptive history, etc. of the volcanoes. Skip the crowds, the warmest hours, the lines and the slow walkers and queues. This is a private departure, not the 10 AM joint hike. This way you go your own pace, making the experience more enjoyable. The larger the group the slower it goes. Even weather tends to be more favorable on early hours. Seize more of your day! No hurries, no crowds. Enjoy the views, take pictures. Looking for an extra challenge? Book for the longer hike to the summit of the volcano.
