Pacaya Volcano

Reviewed By 177patd - Kent, United Kingdom

I visited Pacaya using a local firm from Antigua. They charged 75 quetzals (£9) to transport me my minibus to & from my hotel. They also included a guide to escort our group (about 10) to the lava sites towards the top of the volcano & back down. I had to pay a further 50 quetzals (£6) entrance fee to the Volcano site. I also hired a wooded walking stick (5 quetzals), which was a very useful aid to get grip/leverage up the sometimes slippery/loose volcanic rock surface. I would say that walking to the main viewing area of Pacaya (not the top or where the lava stream can be viewed) is 'medium' degree in difficulty. You can hire a horse & proceed bu horseback to the viewing area. Didn't to that so not sure how much that cost. However, to get to the lava stream is fairly tough going mainly because the rock surface is very loose in places & you have to scramble on all fours in places. Having said that, some very young children managed it. There is nothing in the way of 'health & safety near the lava streams & you are able to get as close as you dare. I tasted some roasted marshmallows that one of the guides had heated up over the main lava stream visible.
