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.

INCREDIBLE experience and ERIC is the most incredible guide on those volcanos

5.00I can not say enough great things about this experience and it was made that much better by the absolute best guide ERIC!! ERIC is the reason my husband and I were able to complete the hike and then we even choose to do Fuego, which was even harder but ERIC kept giving us all the positive reinforcement, encouragement and showed the most patience. He was so positive each time we took a little break and kept pushing us to keep going. He knew we could do it before we realized it! He was so friendly, open to our funny questions and kept giving us real expectation of how much we had already accomplished and how much more time we had to keep pushing. Knowing that he was so understanding and patient then seeing pictures from the summit of Fuego, we knew we would be able to do it! Great communication in advance, prep that morning and then taking the hour bus to an exclusive start, everything was exactly how explained. Jeido the other guide was great as well and cooked some great dinner and hot chocolate. My husband and I enjoyed our bedding and were able to get some rest. Very thankful to Eric and Jeido based the time of our Fuego hike on the weather. Instead of going immediately after arriving to base, like many other camps did then at summit they saw nothing. We were thankful to go at 2am to then have amazing lava views and sunrise views as we departed. 1000x would recommend this company and these guides.
Fantastic!

5.00Awesome experience. Great guides. I also loved that they drove us through a shortcut where we knocked about an hour and a half off the hiking time.
Difficult but worth it!!

5.00SO WORTH IT!!! my boyfriend and I booked this tour a week before going and had 0 prep time. Definitely suggest if you are going to use the stairmaster & walk on extreme incline prior to going. It’s difficult either way. There was always a guide with us & other parts of the group to keep with everyone’s pace. They have good breaks & are really kind. They also let my boyfriend rent size 12 hiking shoes for like $10-12 usd. Def recommend them!! Thank you carlos, paolo, & vida!!!
Absolutely the best experience from our trip!!

5.00Absolutely the best experience from our trip!! Our hiking guides Leo, Erick, and David were fabulous! They were incredibly knowledgable of the route, encouraged us with enthusiasm and music, and provided us all of the necessary equipment to be safe and comfortable on our hike. To ensure we had the best experience, they monitored the weather for our extra hike to the Fuego volcano so we could ascend when the sky was clear and see eruptions. (We met other travelers that booked with other groups who told us their guides took them up regardless of the weather and they completed the difficult hike with no volcano view.) We truly appreciated our guides transparency for the weather to give us a terrific and rewarding experience!! Cannot recommend GT Experience enough. Would recommend everyone to complete the hike with them!
Amazing! My favorite...

5.00The hardest and most rewarding experience! Our guides were incredible. Lèo, Erick, and David were all so encouraging and helpful through the hardest parts of the hike. They provided plenty of food and we took many breaks, making the hike enjoyable. The people we met in our group were amazing aswell. I can’t recommend Experience GT enough!
Absolutely no regrets!!!

5.00AMAZING experience with them SPECIFICALLY!!! The whole crew was so friendly and helpful!!! If you’re not an experienced or active person, you can do it! they take a lot of breaks along the way and provide food, the cabins were great, they provide breakfast BEFORE going to the hike and beanies, jacket, headlights and hiking sticks are free, but you can rent basically everything at their place, but my favorite about EXPERIENCE GT wasn’t all that, but the crew! they treat you like family! Shoutout to my favorite, Paolo, AMAZING instructor, as well as for Roberto and Jaime!!! all of them were very kind, caring and supportive!

5.00Leo, David and Erick were amazing guides! They kept spirits high and knew exactly when to give us breaks - we needed a lot of them. The sleeping cabins were very comfortable too. We had bunk beds and the views from our cabins were amazing. Best yet, they drove us up to a spot where we got to skip the highest inclined first area with no shade which apparently other groups do have to do. I can’t imagine having had to do that. Def recommend:)
Nice hike, something you cannot experience every day

5.00It’s really not that hard if you’re normally fit (so if you’re younger and not an american, go for it). Tour guides Leo and Eric were friendly, cheerful, and always ready to help. The company provided all the details at the start of the tour, everything was as described. Going to Fuego during the night is a really good experience. Only thing is that there’s a 10% surcharge for card payments, but that’s normal in Guatemala. Don’t expect any luxury up in the base camp, be aware what are you signing up for- the agency was open and clear about this, and the guides repeated it multiple times. It’s worth it.
