Absolutely spectacular in every way. Our guides, Franklin & Brenda, were excellent. They created a stellar personalized experience for each person in our group based on needs, ability and skill, all the while prioritizing safety, community, energy, and fun. Franklin especially is an amazing leader and guide who uses his expertise to tap potential, maximize engagement and inspire personal growth. Highest rating eva’!
I had such a good time on this hike! I’m a very experienced hike but had horrible altitude sickness at the start of the hike. The guides took great care of me and helped me make it all the way to the top for amazing views!
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re really glad to hear that, despite the altitude sickness at the beginning, you were able to complete the hike and make it all the way to the top to enjoy the amazing views. For us, the safety and well-being of every guest on the mountain is the top priority, so we’re very happy to know that our guides were able to take good care of you and support you through that difficult moment. Thank you for trusting us, and we hope to welcome you again on another adventure! 🌋😊
The experience with Brother Expedition was excellent. Communication with the agency was always very smooth, and the food was delicious and in sufficient quantities. Jhon, our guide, was attentive at all times, providing me with encouragement and support to achieve the ascent. Additionally, the breaks were very well planned and timely. Without a doubt, it was a wonderful experience. I totally recommend them.

Excellent experience, everything was incredible, and above all, the good vibe and willingness of the guide Felipe, always attentive to us and our needs, and always transparent when it came to decisions, highly recommended.

You can post something like this on TripAdvisor: An experience simply incredible! I recommend this adventure 100%, especially with Brothers Expeditions. I want to highlight Brenda, an exceptional guide. If you are a girl traveling alone, you will definitely be in the best hands: she makes you feel safe at all times, motivates you mentally, pushes you physically when you need it most, and is always attentive to every detail. In addition to being super friendly, helpful, and fun, she knows the route perfectly and conveys a lot of confidence throughout the journey. You can tell the passion he has for what he does. I also loved the detail of receiving a medal upon completing the experience of the two volcanoes; it is a very special memento after all the effort and excitement experienced. Without a doubt, I would repeat this adventure and I will recommend it to everyone. Thank you to the entire team for an unforgettable experience!
¡Muchísimas gracias por compartir una reseña tan bonita y detallada! Nos llena de alegría saber que tu experiencia fue inolvidable y que disfrutaste al máximo esta aventura. Nos emociona especialmente leer tus palabras sobre Brenda. Su profesionalismo, dedicación y pasión por lo que hace son cualidades que valoramos enormemente, y con mucho gusto le haremos llegar tu reconocimiento. Saber que te hizo sentir segura, motivada y acompañada durante toda la expedición significa mucho para nosotros. También nos alegra que el detalle de la medalla haya hecho aún más especial este logro. Completar el Acatenango y el Volcán de Fuego es un gran desafío, y nos encanta que nuestros viajeros puedan llevarse un recuerdo de ese momento. Gracias por confiar en Brother Expedition y por recomendarnos. Será un placer recibirte nuevamente para compartir otra gran aventura. ¡Hasta la próxima! 🌋🏅💙
was a unique experience, in the beginning the weather did not help much but the night improved and we climbed the fire volcano, the accommodation is ok for being a volcano, the meals felt lack of protein in the three meals we received, I took some tuna that kept me up there so regarding the feeding should improve, the guide frank was always attentive to us and our needs special points for him

It was one of the most beautiful experiences I had on my four-month journey through South and Central America! It was a journey to a volcano, but also a journey that everyone experienced for themselves. I was able to gather experiences, learn to understand myself better, and had the courage to go beyond boundaries. The tour was very well organized, and the tour guides were very helpful and very friendly! Angel, one of the guides, always had a good sense for the group, adjusted the pace, motivated the group, and explained a lot to us. He was always open to questions, and we could laugh a lot with him. I really liked his way! I wish the guides all the best for their future! Emilia
Liebe Emilia, vielen herzlichen Dank für deine wundervolle Bewertung und die netten Worte! Es freut uns sehr zu hören, dass die Tour für dich zu den schönsten Erlebnissen deiner viermonatigen Reise durch Süd- und Zentralamerika gehört hat. Besonders freut es uns, dass du die Besteigung nicht nur als Abenteuer, sondern auch als persönliche Erfahrung erlebt hast. Genau das möchten wir unseren Gästen ermöglichen. Dein Lob für Ángel geben wir mit großer Freude an ihn weiter. Es bedeutet unserem gesamten Team sehr viel zu wissen, dass seine Unterstützung, Motivation und sein Gespür für die Gruppe deine Erfahrung so positiv geprägt haben. Wir wünschen dir alles Gute für deine weiteren Reisen und hoffen, dich eines Tages wieder bei uns begrüßen zu dürfen. Vielen Dank, dass du Teil dieses Abenteuers warst! 🌋😊
Very bad experience. We started the excursion with an extra person who did not have a seat in the van due to the guide's decision; despite us telling him, he did not care and squeezed four people into a three-person seat, which is unsafe. During the excursion, the guide Felipe was unable to keep the group together, constantly changing the pace despite complaints from several group members. Once we arrived at the camp, we were crammed into a barrack meant for 8-10 people with 14 people (there were 3 barracks in the camp); despite expressing our discomfort, he proposed no solution. During the descent of the excursion to the fire, the guide was not attentive to the group, and we had to keep an eye on each other. Again, on the way back, he forced us to have one more person in the van (we had already said we did not think it was right on the way there; a solution could have been arranged for the return), and the driver insulted us because of our nationality. DO NOT HIRE THIS AGENCY FOR ANYTHING.
