Itinerary
1
Antigua
We will start this tour by picking you up at the lobby of your hotel or accommodation in Antigua Guatemala.
The time to get to the base of Acatenango Volcano from Antigua is around 1 hour.
1 hour

Acatenango Volcano
The 4WD vehicle will take us up to 80% of the road, and the rest of the way we will go on foot. The car ride will take us around 60-90 minutes, and we will appreciate different landscapes along the way. This is a shared tour to see the sunrise or the sunset.
Then, we will begin our hike to the summit once we arrive at the vehicle drop-off point. This is the last part of the volcano, the tip. This hike requires good physical condition, both muscular and endurance, as the path is quite steep and sandy. It will take us one and a half to two hours to walk to the top, but the scenery will make it all worth it.
