Fast ride - Pacaya volcano adventure on horseback - We did Pacaya volcano adventure "fast ride" and it was absolutely spectacular. The horses were beautiful, well cared for and wonderful to ride. The lava fields of the volcano were unreal. The food was delicious and the team and guides were so much fun to spend the day with. Highly recommend!!

10/10 recommend! - This was the highlight of our trip to Guatemala! The experience itself was incredible (I'm swear wine tastes better when you drink it on an active volcano!), but it was the kindness of the guides that we will remember forever. I was a bit worried that my five-year-old, who'd never ridden a horse, would be scared, but the guides made him feel at ease and he loved every second of it. My five-year-old was also a bit apprehensive about walking over the dried lava so one of the guides hoisted my kid on his shoulders, which my kid couldn't get enough of. We'd recommend booking direclty with Niki - she made the booking process super easy and she also helps the local horses and children, so really, this trip was a no brainer :)

Loved it! - This was an awesome tour! Everything was very well organized from start to finish. This is the best way to tour Pacaya. I would highly recommend this tour if you are looking for something to do while visiting Anigua. As an added bonus, by taking this tour, you are helping support the rescue horses.

Like nothing you've ever seen - I had one of the best days of my life on the tour. This experience is like nothing you've ever seen before I couldn't recommend it enough and the pizza was fantastic and the booking was easy. This is a must do if you are in Antigua!

Mediocre - Definitely does not worth 350$ Can’t recommend it to anyone unless you ended up super bored in Antigua and left with nothing else to do. The organization was quite poor.. and i feel sorry for the horses forced to climb up the mountain. We were fedeed with a slice of pizza and a can of soda. Overall trip took around 7 hours. We returned to the hotel quite exhausted and all dirty

I was left ghosted. Paid and no ride. - Maybe if I was picked up to go on the tour, after booking and paying for it via aviator the day before I would have loved it. instead I sat 90 minutes for no one to message they can’t come or pick me up. Not sure who’s at fault.
