Unforgettable Adventure!
Begin your adventure with a ride in one of our rugged, fully-equipped 4x4 vehicles. Our journey starts at a private finca, where we drive through diverse landscapes, offering beautiful scenery as we reach 2,500 meters.
As we continue our ascent to 3,500 meters, you'll be immersed in the natural beauty of the Guatemalan highlands. Once the vehicles reach the highest point allowed, they will park, giving you the opportunity to capture breathtaking photos of the surrounding vistas, especially of Agua Volcano. This marks our first scenic stop at a spectacular viewpoint.
From here, a short 45-minute hike (2 km) awaits, leading you through stunning terrain to our well-appointed camp. Once at base camp, you can unwind and marvel at the dramatic eruptions of Fuego Volcano.

I think we made the best choice in visiting Volcán de Fuego and Acatenango. Despite the dietary restrictions of two people in our group, Billy was attentive and willing to ensure it was a great experience for us. It’s clear he loves and enjoys what he does, and that shows in the excellent service he provides.
Thank you, Billy and Anderson, for making this experience unforgettablee!

No Refunds.
Why?
Once we receive your deposit we immediately make payments to the private finca where the vehicles enter so they can grant you access; in addition payment is made to our 4x4 provider to secure your place in the vehicle.
We group participants together to guarantee that the tour takes place. When someone cancels, it complicates things for everyone, as it affects the group’s plans and the operation/logistics of the tour.
No exceptions.
Weather Conditions:
Nature is unpredictable, and we cannot guarantee specific weather conditions or volcanic activity. It is the client’s responsibility to check the weather forecast and decide whether to proceed with the tour. Our tours operate daily, regardless of weather conditions, except when the government declares a state of emergency and the park closes then we extend a full refund.
Please note that weather conditions are beyond our control and your safety is our top priority. In the event that adverse weather does not allow to summit kindly note we do not make refunds.
