Iztaccihuatl Summit Climb - Solo Traveler - I used Yacana Outdoors to guide me to the summit of Iztaccihuatl. The entire experience was very smooth and easy. Ricardo was great, walked me through the climb and gave me lots of tips beforehand. Ricardo worked with my schedule and set me up with a fantastic guide (Cristino). Yancana picked me up from MC, got me to the mountain and provided all the gear, food and water for a successful climb. I wouldn't have been able to summit with the help of Yancana Outdoors. I would highly recommend these guys! Thank you!

Iztaccihuatl los Rodillas from La Joya. - I had a fantastic time with my guide, Mauricio. He was able to sense not only my limitations but also to help me achieve something I could be proud of. We were not able to Summit due to my physical condition but I left with new personal records, memories and amazing photos.

Great hike, even better guide - Our guide Jose Luis is wonderful. Professional, helpful, and knowledgeable. He even went out of his way so that I can watch the World Cup final before we went into the mountain. Highly recommend!!!

It's correct, an experience of a lifetime! - A journey to the most amazing place, with two of your best friends, shout out to Aline (who also found my phone after it sliding down the mountain 😂📱) and Señor Pollo aka Señor Oreo aka Juan Carlos or Charlie 😂. The guides made the trip spectacular, attentive, fun, experience, kind, funny. It was more than I probably ever planned or hoped for. In addition, the company was amazing to plan with, it was all very last minute for me and they made every step seamless and enjoyable. Never felt rushed, pressured or uncomfortable - both in booking and on the trail. As far as the mountain itself, or volcano, it is extremely intense. I made it to 5000m, and then decided to head back down. Not due to any weather, or inability, but I reached my limit for that time, my energy was very low. I would highly recommend to acclimate to the elevation prior to attempt in the summit. But otherwise had an amazing time, I'll be back and finish another time. With the same tour company of course!

Fantastic tour to Iztaccihuatl!! Experienced alpinists - This was a fantastic tour!! It is very efficiently organized and I could tell that they are experienced alpinists. Everything was taken care of: equipment, tents, sleeping bags, alpine equipment, food and water. We only had to bring proper clothing and allot of energy! They picked us up in our Mexico City address and took us to the Iztaccihuatl, where we slept overnight at a camping site and then started heading up to the summit a bit past midnight. We reached the glacier by 8am. Our tour guide, Ricardo, was absolutely awesome! He was very knowledgeable of the mountain and absolutely fun to be with. We felt very safe at all times. This was definitely one of the most breathtaking trips I have taken in my life. I absolutely recommend Yacana guides if you want to do alpinism in Mexico!

Increible - Reaching the top of Iztaccihuatl was a great challenge and a fabulous experience. Ricardo is a very knowledgeable and professional guide with a top notch experience of the mountain and quality equipment for this adventure, I totally recommend his services for a safe ride in this dangerous environment.
