Tripadvisors tilnærming til anmeldelser
Hver Tripadvisor-anmeldelse går gjennom et automatisert sporingssystem før den legges ut. Dette systemet samler inn informasjon som svarer på følgende spørsmål: Hvordan, hva, hvor og når. Hvis systemet oppdager noe som muligens strider imot retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet, blir anmeldelsen ikke publisert.
Når systemet oppdager et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk avvises, sendes til anmelderen for bekreftelse eller gjennomgås manuelt av teamet vårt av innholdsspesialister. Disse spesialistene jobber døgnet rundt for å opprettholde kvaliteten av anmeldelsene på nettstedet vårt.
Teamet vårt sjekker hver anmeldelse som er lagt ut på nettstedet og bestrides av fellesskapet vårt for ikke å møte retningslinjene våre for fellesskapet.

Travelling at the age of 53 years togehter withe my wife and our daughter (20 years), we had mixed expectations at first. Leaving Antigua at 7:45am, we arrived at the starting point at 2400m a.s.l. at 8:45am. The first section passed over lava granulate that made steps a bit difficult. Second part was via steps and across corn fields till the edge of the cloud forrest. At 10:10am we arrived at the park entrance. Passing the cloud and later pine forrests, we arrived at the lunch spot at 3200m at 12:00 pm. 45min lunch break with delicious lunch packs provide by our tour operator OX Adventures. Another 45min later, we arrived at the base camp at 3600m asl. The view is amazing when clear. As it openened up during the afternoon, we witnessed several eruptions of Volcano Fuego and decided to hop on the night trek on the volcanoes edge. 4:30 pm we started our 30min descent to the saddle and another 45 min ascent towards the volcanoe. Up there, we saw the volcanoe and a beautiful sunset. Unfortunately the strong wind chilled a lot despite every single layer we wore.
At 7:30pm, we returned and at 8:30pm we arrived back at our base camp. Diner and a large bonfire was set by our colleagues. The night was cold, but the cottages helped a lot. In the middle of the night, we saw Fuego spitting fire balls in the air.
At 3:20am, our guide Romeo called for the start to the summit. Headlamps and tired legs made the climb a bit difficult, but the closer we came to the summit, the more we wanted to reach it.
At 5:30am, we reached the summit and had a fabulous view on large parts of Guatemala from its 3967m. Wind was very chilly and strong, but with our Fuego experience, we just carried every single layer and felt ok. Gloves and cap were essential. At 6:30am, just as Fuego started another eruption, we started our descent and at 7:00am we were at the base camp for breakfast. 7:30am we started the next descent to the colleting point which we reached at 9:30am. At 10:30am we were back in Antigua after this liftetime experience.
Our mixed expectations were changed to satisfying and positive feelings. The climb up and down is a physical challenge, but even at our age easy to perform and quite a few of the younger ones struggled much more.

Melhor passeio da Guatemala. Não é uma atividade para iniciantes, pois apesar de ser alcançável, é altamente extenuante. Contudo, a vista do Fuego em chamas é sem igual!

It was an amazing experience climbing this volcano. We did it with a tour company, which I'd 100% recommend - don't do it by yourself. I had a porter carry my bag up which I would strongly advise. My fitness level is reasonable - I've run half marathons (not to boast there, just to give an idea) - but I still found this climb, and the following descent, tricky. Some of us didn't make it. Some of us cried. Some of us got altitude sickness. However, it wasn't a nightmare and I would definitely say the three Yorkshire Peaks is more challenging.
I would also recommend hiring walking sticks because they massively helped. Also, take lots of warm clothing because at the summit it is freezing.
The climb is definitely worth it though because from the top, it is the best view I have ever seen in my life.

A melhor experiência que você vai ter na vida. O acatenango tem uma dificuldade 7/10 ou 8/10. É muito difícil a subida, a estadia la em cima e a descida também, por mais que na descida todo santo ajuda. Fiz o tour com a Soy tours na qual super indico e tem minha avaliação aqui no site também sobre eles. O ônibus me pegou no hotel as 07:30hrs mas tem agencias e tours que vai mais cedo. Fomos até a agencia que fica na aldeia de lodedad e de lá seguimos a pé ums 10 minitos até a entrada o parque. A primeira 1hrs é terrível pois a areia vulcânica fofa atrapalha muito, todo trajeto é feito em 6hrs de camimhada incluindo as varias paradas para descanso e a parada para almoço. Vá com roupas leves e frescas pois faz calor durante a caminhada. La em cima já faz frio intenso de -5 a -10 dependendo da estação que for, portanto não exite em levar casacos, todo cuidado é pouco mas ao mesmo tempo seja sábio pra não pesar tanto na mochila. Eu fui em Agosto e não peguei chuva apesar de ser epoca chuvosa (milagre). Paguei 200 quetzales pra carregarem minha mochila que estava pesada pois levei tudo que tinha direito pra evitar problemas. Leve remédios pois a altitude vai te arrebentar. Não exite de levar água pois cai orecisar se hidratar muito. Por fim a vista la de cima é espetacular, a melhor vista que você ja viu na vida. Ao anoitecer se tiver sorte com o tempo você verá a lava descendo vermelha brilhante, um por do sol magnífico e um nascer do sol de tirar o fôlego. Tudo que bocê quer é ficar ali parado apreciando mas o frio vem te lembrar a todo momento que você precjsa entrar na barraca um pouco pra se aquecer. Você pode ir mais próximo do el fueo ao anoitecer com uma caminhada de 1:30hr por aí e sair as 04:00 pra subir mais um pouco o acatenango e ver o nascer do sol. Apesar do desgaste físico vale a pena. Tenha corpo e mente preparado.

For those wondering about the difficulty: my baseline fitness level is running a 3km in about 21 mins and I made it to basecamp with difficulty (but it definitely wasn't impossible). Couldn't make it up to the top the next morning though - was obliterated from the night before so just slept in at base camp! Also had some issues with just how cold it was (and i was there in may!), so if youre planning to do the morning hike bring even more layers than you think you need. Had a FANTASTIC time overall & would say that if you can really slowly jog 3km, you can finish this hike :)

Das war das schlimmste und zugleich das schönste Erlebnis meines bisherigen Daseins!
Der Anstieg war insgesamt mit 6 Stunden geplant. Wir waren auch gut in der Zeit. 5 von 6 Stunden gehen ziemlich steil nach oben. Das ist wirklich nichts für Anfänger. Ich habe auf den Trip hintrainiert, es war trotzdem sehr sehr hart. Aber man wird sehr belohnt.

Antigua es una ciudad por decenas de calles de piedra, casas antiguas, decenas de sitios que ver, mucho que hacer. Conocí gente extranjera que duraba semanas allí. Desde Antigua planifican salidas a ver volcanes a Atitlan etc. Un excelente lugar y dentro de lo mas representativo de Guatemala. Renta un vehículo desde el aeropuerto de Ciudad de Guatemala, para ir a Ver volcanes, el Lago Atitlan Chichicastenango, el mejor lugar del mercado maya, con una iglesia donde se mescla cosmovisiones Mayas y españolas. Fuimos en semana santa y ver lo que hacen en Antigua, en esta semana, es impresionante

Incredible experience and worth the pain! It was very tough but for context, I don't go to the gym and generally my exercise is walking the dogs. This is doable if you have a general level of fitness and the views at the end are worth it.

La experiencia es única e inigualable. Un must de la vida y de sus visitas a Guatemala. El plan con amigos lo hace aún mucho más poderoso. Sin embargo es muy retador (nivel Medio-Alto) así qué hay que llegar entrenado y preparado para escalar todo el día.
Hay una opción de caminar 5 horas más para llegar a 300mts de la boca del Volcan, esto no es tan recomendable por el frío y el desgaste fisico. Excelentes fotos, buena atención. Recomendamos #soytours

We have desided NOT to go up acatenango, but we still want to see the volcano. Is is possible to se the eruption from the bottom, if Yes, where is a good place to watch it from? We only have public transportation and tuktuk as a option

Hi everyone!
Is there anyone who hike the mountain in Mid- June?
I have heard that June is very wet so it would be rainy.
Is it hard to see the volcano even when I am on the top?

It is possible to use mobile internet at the base camp or next to the summit?

Sinceramente yo no e visto, pero no hace falta 4x4 para llegar a la base. Y tampoco hay camino para travesía de ese tipo ya que es un parque y reserva

Yes, the camping area you will have a perfectly good viewpoint and can see and hear its eruptions. I have seen people take horses. The only unfortunate thing is the horses aren’t well taken care of so I’m usually against that. But thats totally up to you. Hiking wouldn’t be an option though, its between a moderate and difficult trek in my opinion and definitely not short.
Looks like tours are still going up Acatenango despite Fuegos violent eruption last year. Have things been safe since last summer when Fuego was erupting?

Is anything really safe? If you mean would this activity be performed in the U.S? Definitely not. Did I feel safe? Absolutely! But what do I know? I don’t think any tourist in a tour group has ever died from Fuego’s lava and hundreds of people go up it every day. If anything is dangerous its Pacaya. You are close enough to the lava to throw rocks at it lol. But on Acatenango your on a completely different mountain, if anything I’d imagine its safer than being down below. Don’t waste your time questioning safety. If tour are going up and your seeing hundreds of happy people coming down then its safe. I would just recommend going with a reputable tour guide and not going by yourself. Or if you do, don’t go to the very top because of extreme weather and cold. The tours stop I believe about 900 feet below the summit.

How long in advance should one book the volcano hike? I would like do the hike between 23rd-27th Dec 2018. Is it possible to go to Antigua and book depending on the weather etc or you recommend booking in advance? I have read on a blog that prices can vary as much as 4 times between companies too.

You must reserve with minimum time 15 days. especially for what you should bring with clothes or equipment and communication with your coordinator. The cost depends if you want to do private or collective tour. For December is a beautiful date.
There are many companies in old Guatemala that offer the tour and various prices. But few local organizations. I recommend you to Elvin and Aprode. good luck
