Itinerary and highlights

We pick you up at 8:00 am at your accommodation, and we head towards San Vicente Pacaya where we will begin our real adventure

Upon arriving at our starting point we will give you an introduction to the use of ATVs, we will give you directions and we will go to the volcanic sand trails where we can feel the adrenaline and walk on the petrified lava, our expert guide will give you historical data of this place and we will follow the route for 30 more minutes to reach the loose sand track of the volcano where it will be the challenge to be able to climb without getting stuck. When we reach the top of the volcano's slope we will take photos and enjoy the giant that is in front of us. For us, the return route will be the same, we will arrive at the San Vicente parking lot, we will tow the ATVs and we will return to Antigua which will take approximately 50 minutes.
