Pacaya hike from Puerto Quetzal - What a day expertly organized by guide extraordinaire Christian! Full of knowledge and interesting facts, the conversation throughout the day was second to none👍 Also, an awesome hike on Pacaya with local guide David Mynor showing us all the highlights and more, whilst setting a perfect pace 🌋 Lastly our excellent driver Miguel showed both skills and flexibility getting us around and stopping for us when needed - even if just for a lovely ice cold Gallo Chela 🐔👊 Can’t recommend this tour and people high enough 🙏

Pacaya and hot springs spa - Great service, visited the volcano with an excellent guide “Walter” and headed to the hot springs- highly recommended. Make sure to have enough time to enjoy both. Ask ahead of time when the tour ends. There are options for massages but they should be booked at the beginning or ahead of time.

Beautiful view and excellent guide and service! - We really enjoyed our trip to Pacaya. The driver was very kind to pick us up outside of Guatemala City and not the usual pick-up locations. The guide was very outgoing and knowledgable. The views were magnificent.

Awesome experience - This was a lovely experience, our guide David definitely helped make it. A must do experience in Antigua Guatemala. My trip included the hot springs which was a lovely way to relax after the hike
