We created the camp to provide a quality experience with excellent service, as we want our guests to experience the adventure of Acatenango without having a bad time. Our food portions are generously sized and made with sustaining ingredients, as we know firsthand how demanding this adventure is. The camp is new and very well-designed. It's also very well-located, with a surprising view of the the protagonist of this adventure, the Fuego Volcano.
Our camp is called IXCANUL, which in the Mayan language refers to the internal force of the mountain, which can erupt at any moment. Our goal is for you to fall in love with our country and make you want to come back again to create unforgettable experiences.

5.00This was a life changing experience. As someone who isn’t experienced in hiking, our tour guides, Fernando, Antonio and Eric, made our experience memorable and helped us throughout the hike. Before the activity, we all met up at their office and you could rent hiking sticks and backpacks. Warm clothing and accessories as well as head lights were included. The food prepared by the group was more than enough and it was delicious. I was slower than the rest of the group, but the way the tour guides were organized, Eric always was by my side even though the rest of the group was ahead of us. He was very nice and made sure I was alright. He never made me embarrassed to take many breaks. He even encouraged it. He kept motivating me to keep going and to go at my own pace. I couldn’t think of a better company to pick for this experience. Thank you Experience GT and to the staff for making this an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend hiring a porter for the bags.

5.00Very demanding but also very rewarding experience. Climbing to Fuego after the 4 hour ascend is really hard but the view is rewarding. On the other hand the views from the campsite are very nice as well. Tour very well organized, excellent and supportive guides Roberto and others. Thanks. Tracks can be crowded be prepared for that!

5.00If you can, do the extra hike to the Fuego during night. It's just a different experience on another level, seeing an erupting volcano up close. The hiking is hard, but the guide is there for you. Don't hesitate to ask for help (slow down) if needed.
Very good experience

5.00Our guide Eric was amazing. Felt super comfortable through the mountains. They serve good foods, and always keep good energy and sufficient breaks. Would highly recommend Eric again, as he showed us some local spots on the mountain, and kept up safe and enjoying our time on the mountain. Would book again through these guys, they are very efficient and thoughtful!
Amazing experience. It...

5.00Amazing experience. It was a challenging journey, especially during the climb up Fuego, but the guide was very friendly and looked after us the whole way. When you see the lava and hear the roar of the volcano erupting, you’ll realize that every bit of the climb was worth it.
Good experience
