Randonnée de plusieurs jours à Acatenango
Description
Notre visite tout inclus est la meilleure option pour profiter de ce magnifique volcan que les voyageurs l'ont classé comme le plus beau volcan de toute l'Amérique centrale, sa beauté est due au volcan jumeau Fuego qui est actif et effectue une éruption extraordinaire pour tous les voyageurs de notre aire de camping sur Acatenango. Notre société est située en face du volcan Fuego et si elle est suffisamment claire, vous pourrez voir les volcans Pacaya et Agua également. Chaque cabane dispose d’un oreiller, – sac de couchage à 6°C, couverture supplémentaire, un matelas confortable de 5′′ ou 12cm, sous le mat partout dans la tente nous avons un tapis imperméable pour isoler le froid par le fond. Dans notre projet touristique, nous travaillons avec une coopérative de guides locaux CAT (Comité d'Autogestión Turística) conformée par les gens de la communauté San Jose Calderas, Chimaltenango. Nos cabanes sont partagées par 2 ou 4 personnes (le nombre de personnes par cabane dépend de la disponibilité lorsque la réservation est confirmée).

A once-in-a-lifetime experience that I can highly recommend. The organisation by CA Travelers was really smooth and Wilson was a great guide. It was one of the most exhausting hikes I’ve done so far (and I’ve done a few), but once you reach the camp, the Fuego hike and the hike to peak of Acatenango are optional and you can see how you feel. I did the extra Fuego hike right after ascending to the camp and that was the exhausting part for me. In any case, all the effort was definitely worth it and I’d say this hike is an absolute must-do activity when you’re in Guatemala. Thanks for the great experience to CA Travelers.
I really enjoyed my first ever volcano hike with Marvin as our head guide. I made a ton do new friends there too and, frankly -even though the hike was grueling: in the end it felt unbelievable
Arduous hike. Requires heavy, lifting of the baggage all along the way up. Relatively doable by inexperienced people but if you’re not active and you’re over 35 years old I would strongly recommend against doing this without some preparation. Paying for the porters definitely helps. I went during the Rainey summer season and we still got great views but that is apparently a gamble. Lots of extra fees with this company for the bag, for the extra hikes up top, for the poles (which I strongly recommend especially on the way down as they make a bigger difference than the way up). There are cabins for 2 people but most people ended up in cabins of 3-4 just fyi. The fuego hike is particularly intense after a long day hike up the mountain for views that are more or less the same as from your cabin but the only difference is it is closer by a little bit. Another issue to consider is this company starts the hike so late in the day that there really wasn’t a ton of time up in the viewing cabin relaxing or cooking marshmallows before leaving right away.
Incredible experience! Thanks to Wilson and the entire team, excellent guides who make you feel very comfortable. 10/10 recommended!
Great people, great tour!!!!
I broke my leg a few days before and they were so helpful in the process of needing to cancel my trip. They called and we talked about refund options. I will definitely come back someday to hike this volcano. I was still able to use their shuttle service to get from antigua to Guatemala City and that all went so seamlessly as well. They have a well organized organization.
An excellent experience with CA travel. The staff was very professional and wonderfully friendly. The food was more than we even needed. They gave us breakfast lunch dinner, and even marshmallows if we want to roast them on the fire. I recommend going all the way to Fuego at night to see the lava. Leo A was so cheerful and ready to boost our spirits when the hike was getting pretty difficult. We needed his energy to get to the top haha. I would book them again.
On Sunday i completed the overnight acetenango hike with CA travellers. It was one of the best experiences of my life! It was extremely well organised, the itinerary was very organised and detailed, the communication prior to the hike was excellent. The breakfast given before leaving to the supply centre was delicious, all of the equipment we were provided with was top quality. From our main guide with CA travellers, Toni to the local acetenango guides, everyone was absolutely fantastic, extremely professional and made everyone feel extremely safe and they ensured we had a fantastic time. The food provided in the lunches was delicious, and the cabins we were staying in exceeded expectations big time. I can’t thank CA travellers enough for giving me such an unforgettable experience.
Had a great time on this tour. Does exactly what they say it does. Well fed to being with and throughout, which is important given it is a challenging hike. Our lead guide Toni was full of energy and great fun but also happy to chat with individuals - a great combination. The Camp was superbly located. To repeat, the reality matches the marketing which isn't always true.
A magical plan and excellent service. Very human and warm service.
