Guat2do Travel Experiences - First off, this was an amazing adventure I read the description and saw a few photos before booking the activity. Well done this was very organized, the views were breathtaking and s/o to tour guide Mynor. He was very professional, knowledgeable about the landscape and provided insight through out time together about the culture. I really recommend if he is available to request him you won’t be disappointed.
The elevation on the hike up the mountain was intense after awhile so he recommended taking a taxi (horse) which proved to be beneficial for parts of the steepest but once you make it to your destination overlooking the city with the beautiful clouds in the background.
Also have S/o Guat2do they were helpful keeping me up to date on timely changes with the weather and pickup/drop off. There was not anytime that I felt unsafe and the staff all did not great job pointing out some of the things unique to the city.
I wasn’t about to check out the cooked pizza on the volcano due to the rain but it wasn’t so bad bc the steamed marshmallows. I was even given a partial refund due to the weather thank you for honoring that agreement.
I am looking forward to my next visit to watch the lava flow at night and I’ll likely book again with Guat2do Travel.

Different and Worthwhile - Driver was phenomenal even in crazy traffic. Tour guide was extremely knowledgeable as well. We rode horses up a volcano and hiked a bit. Once we got to the top, it was certainly a bucket list experience. Having pizza from a lava rock is cool

Great people + the best pizza - The conductor of the shuttle, Mario, was so sweet and efficient in getting us through the Guatemala City traffic to the base of the volcano. Our guide was informative and patient with our pace. I got to ride on a horse named “Muñeco” up the volcano which was so much fun! The Pacaya Pizza made by David was probably the best pizza I’ve ever had. 10/10 experience.

Super great day! - David was an awesome host and guide. The hike was very doable and the pizza lunch at the top was terrific. David made sure we paused at key stops along the way for the perfect photos. The local company reached out the night before to adjust our start time earlier based on weather and expected views—and they were dead on. We had incredible views of other volcanoes on the way up that were clouded out by the time we headed down. I would do this excursion again the next time I’m in Guatemala.

Such a fun experience - Mynor was our tour up the volcano! He was the best! Super friendly and informative. He gave us suggestions and choices of how we want to go about the journey to the volcano. Gave us plenty of time to rest and gather ourselves thru out. Highly recommend him! 10/10
Miguel was our driver, he was also friendly and knowledgeable.

Enjoyable time - The sky was clear and view was amazing. The tour guide David was knowledgeable and prioritized safety. The pizza was top tier, overall great experience.
The pizza location recently changed, thus we hiked up a less crowded area.

Climb Pacaya with Pizza - An Excellent Adventure - I had a great adventure with Guat2do Travel Experiences on their Climb Active Pacaya Volcano Tour with Pizza. I had an excellent driver and guide. The traffic out of Guatemala City was awful with delays due to an accident and my driver Adelso was resourceful and skilled in finding an alternate route to get us out of the mess and to the volcano. My guide David was patient and helpful, answering all of my questions and teaching me a lot about the area and the volcano. Pizza was delicious and fun at the top of the hike. Although the fog rolled in for part of the walk, it cleared and left stunning views on the way down. Both Adelso and David went out of their way to take good care of me and ensure the trip was the best possible. Thanks for the professional, caring, excellent staff and outing!

Amazing experience. - This was the most amazing thing ever. The hike was a little tough, but it was so worth it.
The pizza at the top of the mountain, CHEFS KISS*
We had Jovanny as a tour guide (not sure if his name is spelled that way), regardless, he was very informative, helpful and amazing. It was so much fun and we got great pics!
Thank you!!!!

Pizza at Pacaya is a Must Do! - Such a great adventure. It was tough, but we hiked the full way by foot. There are options to ride a horse, if you’d like.
The views were lovely even with some fog — and our tour guide David was patient and informative.
The pizza was definitely the highlight after hiking about 1.5 miles up the steep incline. We even saw a couple get engaged at the picturesque lunch spot.
Highly recommend!

Volcano Hot Adventure - The view was amazing at the crest but it is important to mention that the guide kept us motivated and cheerful during the entire hike. Always with positive vibes and good stories. We had the opportunity to taste one of the best pizza we have had at a top of a volcano.
