Beautiful video, I’m from Guatemala…. thank you for choosing Guatemala to travel.

[@arctravels]

I had an amazing time visiting your country!

I got to go to the top of Pacaya in 1975. I expected to see a smoldering mountain. Instead it was FULLY ACTIVE, with eruptions every minute or so. Early AM the sky would light up neon orange... it did not look real! The ground would shake. You could hear it, feel it and smell it! What an adventure! Too bad I didn't have a camera.

[@arctravels]

You were lucky Pacaya is no longer active by the time I arrived.

I hiked up Pacaya several years ago. It was fun and awesome.

is it safe? are there dangerous people like robbers

[@15cedw]

@@wartortle577 we were a small group with a guide. Did not encounter any problems.

[@arctravels]

Slightly challenging, enough to be enjoyable.

There's a new sport called volcano surfing! I haven't tried it, but it looks like fun. I almost had my sneakers melt by getting too close to the lava...back in 1975. Have fun, gang.

[@arctravels]

I did volcano surfing in Niagara. It was a lot of fun

[@majahi4937]

Really cool video, thank you!! I was just wondering, how many hours of walking was there if you don't count the horse riding in?

[@arctravels]

HI and thanks. Depending on your fitness level but I recalled it not being more than an hour. It is steep though.

[@owenter]

May I ask which month did you do this hike when it's chilly?

[@arctravels]

@@owenter Yes, it was in January

[@BlessedLife291]

I’m going to Guatemala next week with my kids and they’ll definitely need a horse lol did your hotel arrange the tour?

[@arctravels]

I booked that tour through Facebook. You can check on apps like Viator or GetYourGuide and find plenty options for that hike. Horses you rent on site, you'll see them all around ;) Have a great time with the kids.

[@maribelvh]

Hello, in what month did you do this hike?

[@arctravels]

February

[@horiiizon3457]

What vulcano is that in your outro? :)

[@arctravels]

You mean the clip where I literally have a voiceover narrating “seeing volcano FUEGO in the distance”?!!

[@horiiizon3457]

​​@@arctravelsnot a clip a picture at 06:05 with your socials showing. If you are narrating I'm sorry I had to watch the vid without sound to not wake someone up..

[@arctravels]

@@horiiizon3457 clip is the portion of the video you’re talking about and that’s Fuego.

[@PhillipLearnTeach]

How much for the horse ride?

[@arctravels]

I don't recall. Wasn't much though.
