PACAYA
Who wants to climb a volcano? Pacaya is the perfect place to start!
​
Only 32 km (1.5 hours) from Antigua, Pacaya makes for an unforgettable day trip. Hike up (or ride horseback) across black lava fields with steam rising from the ground and sweeping views all the way to the coast on a clear day. Local guides show you where the earth is still hot enough to cook marshmallows or even pizza, turning the experience into something wild and fun. Wear sturdy shoes, bring water, sun protection, and your sense of adventure—this is Guatemala at its most raw and alive.
ACATENANGO
Who wants to climb a BIGGER volcano? Acatenango is the ultimate volcano adventure.
​
Just outside of Antigua, this overnight hike takes you to summit the third tallest volcano in Central America (3,976 m / 13,045 ft). With infinite views and a front-row seat to the famously active Volcan de Fuego often erupting through the night - this is one of those lifetime experiences you won't want to miss. You will climb through farmland, cloud forest, and alpine terrain before reaching base camp above the clouds, where lava glows and ash plumes light up the sky.
Bring warm layers, solid hiking boots, and a strong mindset—this one is challenging, unforgettable, and absolutely worth every step. Can't make the hike on foot? 4x4 tours are also available!
IXIMCHE
Want to see some ancient Mayan ruins without going all the way to Tikal?
Iximche is incredible!
​
Only 51 km (1.5 hour drive) from Antigua, a visit to the Iximche ruins makes a perfect day trip. Walk through open plazas, temples, and ritual ballgame courts surrounded by pine forest, often with the scent of copal in the air from ongoing Maya ceremonies. You can even climb on, and into most of the structures (with caution and respect of course). Bring good shoes, a light jacket (it’s cooler up there), a picnic lunch, your camera and a bit of reverence: this isn’t just a ruin, it’s a living ceremonial site.​
