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.

5.00Fantastic experience, the very complete and good food and the guides took care to make the experience as pleasant as possible, if I needed to rest they stopped with me every moment.

5.00Everyone is right, this hike is though! But Experience GT makes sure that you are as comfortable as can be on top of that mountain. The basecamp is amazing and they even have swings! What I love the most is that everything is included (apart from the Fuego hike), so no surprises for additional costs for sticks or gloves. I’m already recommending this tour to all of my friends who are currently travelling in Guatemala, cause this was the best thing I’ve ever done!
Loved this experience. It...

5.00I can’t say enough great things about this team! They were great communicators and totally helped with gear and accommodating my vegetarian diet. I was a solo traveler and felt super safe. The guides were great - I kept seeing groups go by us of 30-50 people and was so thankful I went with this team and only had a group of 9. Book with them!
Book with them! You won't regret it

5.00We had the most amazing two days at the Vulcano. Experience GT had a different hike from the other tours which was so great since it was less people there and we saved an hour hiking which made us have more energy for the fuego hike. Juan our tour guide was the best and made the experience even better. The cabins we slept in were looking out on the vulcano with such w great view. 10/10 experience! Probably the best thing I’ve ever done.
Great Experience!

5.00Had a really great time on this tour- it is a really difficult hike but the guides were great and I never felt rushed and was told to take my time! Tour includes everything you'll need, clothes, water, etc. and there's an option of doing additional hikes closer to the volcano or just staying at Basecamp for the views. Would highly recommend this company!
Worth it
