Ever ridden a horse up an active volcano?? This unique adventure combines nature and exploration. Ascend to 2550 meters along ash trails and hardened lava, where breathtaking views of the valleys and three surrounding volcanoes unfold. Suitable for all skill levels, the horses are well-trained and the guides ensure comfort throughout the journey.
After reaching the upper slopes, dismount to traverse the lava fields, engaging with the volcanic landscape up close. We roast marshmallows and make S'mores in an oven made of lava rocks.
OPTIONAL add-on: We ride down to the nearby village, tie up our horses 'Wild West style' outside of a tienda, and enjoy a well-deserved cold beer with locals. Experienced riders have the opportunity to trot/canter in a nearby open field. This additional option is HIGHLY recommended, a really cool way to see a bit of REAL Guatemala.
This tour has a 2 person minimum! If you are a solo traveler we can try to add you to another tour.

Cần Quan Tâm
Your experience begins with pickup in Antigua Guatemala, followed by a scenic drive through the surrounding countryside toward the base of Pacaya Volcano. Once you arrive, you’ll meet the local horse handlers and get paired with your horse for the ride up the volcano. After a short introduction, the guide will lead the group up volcanic trails made of ash and hardened lava as you climb the slopes of one of Guatemala’s most active volcanoes. As you gain elevation, the views open up across the surrounding valleys and neighboring volcanoes. The guide will explain the history and facts of the volcano and its recent eruptions. Near the upper slopes, you’ll dismount to explore the lava fields on foot. We roast marshmallows and make S'Mores in a oven made from the lava rocks and natural heat from the volcano. After descending, you’ll return to the vehicle and head back to Antigua Guatemala.

5.00I highly recommend this experience. Abdel made for a smooth, and comfortable ride to pacaya. He also taught me quite a bit about Guatemala on our way there! Manolo was an amazing guide. His passion for Guatemala was inspiring and he is HIGHLY knowledgeable about the country, history, and the flora/ fauna of the region. The view going up the volcano was truly incredible. Thank you for sharing your country with me!
Caramelo’s Biggest Fan!

5.00Such a fantastic experience! I booked this last minute as I had a cold and did not feel up to hiking, but wanted to experience the volcano. Jonathan picked me up at my hotel on time and when we arrived in Pacaya, my guide Manolo greeted me. He set me up with Caramelo, an angelic horse who does his job very well, and all I had to do was sit there and enjoy the views! He made guacamole to enjoy at the top and also provided materials for volcano-roasted s’mores. I’ve already recommended this tour to others from my group for the ease of booking, clear communication, and excellent experience all around.
