100% recommended - Excellent experience. All 4 guides are super dry. They accompanied us all the way, motivating and encouraging us. Total thanks to Leo and Raul, who helped keep climbing when I felt I couldn't anymore.

Excellent volcano experience - Could not recommend this trip more. Was 100% worth the money. Challenging hike up through the snow/ice with crampons and ice axes with stunning views surrounding us. Saw inside the crator of the volcano which was incredible and had 360 views around us, making it easy for us to see other places we’d been. English speaking tour guides were great and very helpful. The sliding down the volcano afterwards was definitely a highlight!

Amazing company and guides to climb Villarrica with! - This was an amazing hike with a really great company. They provided us with loads of information and all the necessary equipment. The day was very well organised and the guides had a perfect balance between making sure we all had fun and the activity being safe!! They were also really supportive of a range of abilities in the group and made sure everyone had a good day, we would 100% recommend!

Highly recommended for the Villarrica ascent! - We did the Villarrica volcano ascent with Zenit and had a great experience. We felt safe on the whole tour (we also have some mountaineering experience ourselves) and the guides were fun and incredibly knowledgeable about nature, people, volcanoes and everything. The equipment provided was in great condition and well prepared. Communication with the company was easy, and everything felt well organized from start to finish.

Amazing day with great staff and group. - Amazing day climbing Villarrica volcano. Staff were professional and friendly. They were very safety conscious and reminded us to drink plenty of water and eat food. Given backpack with all our equipment needed for the day. We went at a slow steady pace which made the ascent easier. You go in single file so unless they tell you we are having a break, you keep going but the breaks are spaced out appropriately and sure there would be not be a problem if had to stop briefly. We had safety demonstration on how to climb in the snow and ice with the crampons and ice axe, we moved at a good pace and by time we knew it we had reached the top. They took photos of us at the crater and given extra layers to slide down the snow on the way down. It was sooo fun and again they were very safety conscious. We had perfect weather which helped but Zendt travel were amazing and would highly recommend. Thanks again! It was one of our best days travelling out of 3 months of travelling so far!
