- Pacaya - This is the only place you can book a horse for Pacaya. We arrive where your horse will be waiting dressed in the beautiful colors of Guatemala. Each horse has your own private cowboy guide (keeping you safe throughout the entire experience) Ride over lava rock to astounding views of 3 other volcanos arriving at the foot of Pacaya volcano. Here your private lava chef awaits you as you roast marshmallows on the hot pockets of the lava and your chef prepares a pizza to be cooked on the lava coals. This is luxury style as your host will prepare a brightly colored Mayan picnic with colorful cushions, blankets and wine service. If sunset tour is available (out of rainy season….) we stay while the sunsets then your cowboy guide leads you safely out in the dark, to your transportation back to Antigua. We are Soul Shine Horse Rescue so a portion of all tours go back to the horses and families. Please note we must have 2 people to do this tour- Please contact us if you are traveling solo and we will try to add you to a tour. We are in rainy season now so the ours will begin at 8:30 am to get the best possible views! We require 24 hours advance notice for bookings as this is a luxury tour.

Horse tour on a volcano with homemade pizza! - We had the best time at this once in a lifetime experience! We did this after a busy mission trip. You don’t have to have experience in riding a horse. The guides are so knowledgeable and helpful. Their friendly disposition makes the tour so enjoyable! The pizza and wine were delicious! A must visit!

Once in a lifetime experience - I cannot say enough good things about this experience. Top notch customer service from beginning to end. Niki was such a pleasure to work with. She accommodated me at the last minute as a solo traveler. As for the excursion itself, it was absolutely amazing. MarLo, Jimmy and the rest of the crew were so amazing and kind and made this a once in a lifetime experience. This was definitely on the pricey side for my budget but it was so worth it!

Must do magical experience Pacaya. - Here is your text with the spelling mistakes corrected:
I have to say this was a mesmerizing experience that anyone who visits Antigua should do. Nikki, Manuel, and cowboys were great to deal with. Initially, we were concerned about the horses as some companies don’t take proper care of the animals, but after speaking to Nikki and Manuel and seeing how healthy the horses look, our concerns were put to rest. Not only do they take great care of them, they are actually one of the few, if not the only, nonprofit organizations in the area that devote their time and resources to helping the horses in the area and adopting horses in need. That was the icing on the cake.
The view and the experience are one of a kind. This will apply to seasoned riders or first-timers. The scenery of the volcanoes/lava and surrounding mountains while you ride is second to none. My entire family loved it from my youngest 7-year-old daughter to my wife, who was initially concerned about the little one. But the horses were well-trained, and the cowboys were attentive and always making sure we were safe.
The food was excellent as well. If we had more time, we would do it again. That’s how magical this experience was.
Don’t leave Antigua without experiencing this. You will regret it.

Volcano ride is a must do! - Incredible! Good horses, amazing cowboys and unforgettable views of the volcano while eating the most delicious pizza! Niki planned my entire week in Guatemala and this ride was one of the highlights. This company is really great to work with and the guides go out of their way to make sure you're safe and enjoying your trip. I was a solo traveler and they made me feel like family.

BEST TOUR EVER!! - This was the highlight of our trip to Guatemala!! A MUST DO. Both me and my partner have never ridden a horse before this tour so we didn’t know what to expect. The cowboys made it effortless for us along with our horses, Manchas and Capitán. Lori was such a fun tour guide along with Jimmy and the cowboys. & The lava pizza was better than any pizza you’d find in any restaurant! We danced, drank wine, shared stories, pet the volcano dogs, and laughed a bunch. If I could give this tour a 1000/10 I would!

You should book this !! - Amazing, once in a lifetime experience, with fun, hardworking people and for a great cause. Marlo was an engaging and knowledgeable guide offering information about the trip and about other activities around the city. Highlight of my trip to Antigua.

This was so fun! We were... - This was so fun! We were with a small group. The horses were well trained and accompanied by their caballeros. A pizza dinner was tasty too! My only disappointment was that we didn't get a great view of the volcanoes because the cloud cover didn't cooperate. Of note, the owners have non-profit horse clinic that just opened to help keep the horses in much of Guatemala healthy.

Great bucket list day - We absolutely loved our ride. Lori was an incredible guide from start to finish, offering mint candies during the windy drive, recommendations for local activities elsewhere in Antigua, info about the towns we drove through and introductions to our guides. The trip up the volcano was mellow, the pizza at the top was great, and the cute individual snores kits really made the children smile. It was very foggy on our day but that just made it a different type of experience. Would highly recommend.
