This was our first time...

This was our first time on volcano, it was amazing .The guide provided us with all the helpful info we needed. Difficulty was moderate, but be prepared for a mountain sickness.

Operator response

Ivan! So glad you enjoyed your Nevado de Toluca excursion! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear that your experience at Nevado de Toluca was fantastic and that you enjoyed the mountain's beauty. It's true that altitude presents a unique challenge, and it's an important factor to consider when hiking at these elevations. However, we want to clarify that not everyone experiences altitude sickness. In fact, only a very small percentage of those who visit the mountain are affected, as the ability to adapt to altitude largely depends on genetic factors. Some individuals may be more sensitive to high elevation and react this way, but most of our visitors acclimatize without significant issues. We strive to guide everyone at an appropriate pace and with the necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience. We're proud to know you enjoyed the excursion and had such a positive experience. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you back for another adventure at Nevado de Toluca in the future!

Amazing guides to summit Navado de Toluca

Alan and Carla were incredible guides, kind, knowledgable and fun! They made sure that the group was feeling safe and that the spirit was positive. They provided us with lunch and to finish the day, they took us to a local cabana for a much deserved and delicious dinner. Thanks so much for the incredible and enjoyable experience!
