Pacaya Volcano - Out of the three FANTASTIC ATV tours I booked through Simoon, the Pacaya Volcano was my absolute favorite. From the moment I arrived at the office to check in, every worker was so friendly and welcoming. Simoon's guides are all so professional, they are easy to communicate with and understanding/flexible with each traveler's needs. My favorite part is always driving the ATVs and the guides are very good at explaining how to use them safely. I felt very comfortable zipping around the mountains/volcano despite being a beginner. It was nice too that the guides took high quality pictures of us throughout the tour and sent them to us later that day. Shout-out to Oscar, Ismael, and Pedro! If you're looking for a thrilling and educational activity in Guatemala, you must book a Simoon Tours. It was the best part of my entire trip! My only request is to add more t-shirt sizes to the shop (XS, S, M). I would have loved to bring home a souvenir shirt.

Excellent experience - On a recent trip to Antigua Guatemala I used the services of Simoon Tours. This is a great tour company. I did a Pacaya Volcano ATV tour. The 2 Guides Sergio and Ismael were a lot of fun to be around and informative. The tour and the Simoon crew were the highlight of my visit to Antigua. I would have done a second tour if I would have had time. Thank you Simoon Tours

Highly recommend - I had a fantastic time on the ATV Pacaya Tour with Simoon Rentals & Tours! Although the fog prevented us from seeing the volcano, the overall experience was still amazing. Our tour guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and ensured we all had a fun and safe adventure. The trails and scenery throughout the ride were beautiful, and I loved the thrill of exploring the area on the ATV. I highly recommend this tour and will definitely be back to try another one, hopefully with clearer skies next time!

Very Cool ATV tour.. - I booked this ATV tour last minute as i didnt feel like hiking Pacaya Volcano. Its a totally different experience. For the thrill seekers this is the option for you as you get to see and drive thru an active volcanic terrain. Very cool experience. Lucky enough to go alone as no one else was booked for the day. GIO, my guide, was a total pro. Made sure I was safe and even toasted my sandwich. Thanks guys.

Tour in quad - Great staff and we have a lot of fun! I recommend David's tour and match the pizza on the volcano after the short trecking! It was delicious!

Amazing experience! - It was amazing! So cool getting to ride ATVs through the towns! You get to see people’s day-to-day lives outside from the touristy stuff in the big cities. I did it on Friday August 2nd, 2024. Don’t remember my guide’s name but he was very helpful and knowledgeable. He shared information about Guatemala’s history, geology and geography. He also made sure safety was the priority. Overall very nice experience. Totally worth your money. They give you food and a raincoat if it rains.

Fun trip with friends - Great trip! So much fun! The guides did an amazing job of keeping us safe. The drive to our departure point gave me a chance to see more of Guatemala. Seeing the old lava flows and the lake in the old caldera was remarkable.
