Amazing and helpful guide gave us an exceptional experience - Bernardo was a very nice and knowledgeable tour guide. He shared so much interesting info about the trail and volcanos around the area.
We came from a city at the sea level and had some altitude sickness. Bernardo took care of us well and we were able to complete the trail.
Thank you Bernardo!
We highly recommend this trip to anyone who has a good physical fitness.

A great day hike - We had a great hike with Carlos! He was very friendly, knowledgable, knew the terrain very well. The snacks and packed lunch was a lovely touch. The drive was much easier than navigating there ourselves. Would highly recommend.

Excellent view - Beautiful and challenging hike! Carlos was on time and the drive there and back seemed short with his interesting conversation. The guide was fantastic, he took great care of us and it was really fun to hike with him. The volcano and waterfalls were stunning. Local and authentic food tasting on the way back was relaxing and nice completion of the day trip. It's advantageous to care about waether forecast and prefer a date with nice weather and clear sky. The view is really excellent. I highly recommend taking this tour.

Fantastic day - Carlos was a fantastic guide. I had a wonderful day. It was cloudy and we did not see the volcanoes but the walk was very pleasant and saw a nice waterfall. It was a private tour since no other people joined us. Carlos was on time and the drive there and back seemed short with his interesting conversation. When we finished the walk we ate amazing quesadillas in a very nice place along the road.
I highly recommend taking this tour!

Beautiful quiet hike with amazing views and great tour guide! - Amazing trip well worth it!
Alan was our tour guide and he was great - really friendly, fun and knowledgable.
There is a grocery store near meeting point to grab breakfast but you also stop on the way for the bathroom and can get breakfast from a street vendor there. The journey there took around 1.5 hours with some amazing views on the drive up.
We were given the option between an 8km or 12km route. Views were amazing. Wasn’t a particularly difficult or steep hike. The tour company offer some longer and more challenging hikes if that is what you’re after.
I brought an extra layer but didn’t need it as was warm. They provide a backpack and plenty of snacks and water and a delicious sandwich which we ate at the top.
On the way back we stopped at a small place for some amazing tacos, all included in the price of the tour.
Drive back took over 2 hours due to bad traffic but not much can be done about that!
Highly recommend this tour - made even better by the brilliant Alan!

Gorgeous hike - Alberto was an absolutely amazing guide. He was so funny and friendly and took lots of photos of us without being asked (we called him our paparazzi 😁). The hike was beautiful and the trail was easy, but the altitude can make it very difficult for some, even if you are fit. Really recommend this tour, thanks Alberto

Highly Rewarding Long Hike - Loved the hike. I am inexperienced and the climb was hard, even with our guide slowing down and giving breaks. However, the trek was highly rewarding. The views were beautiful and we came to a point where Iztaccihuatl was right in front of our eyes. The guide let us know that our trek was one of the shortest, 14 km total. I would do it again, my partner said she would not.
