      We do not have any inconvenience with the child's trip, especially if he/she already has experience in climbing, and even more knowing that he/she is going with the parents. Because of the type of excursion there is no special price for children (you pay as an adult).

      According to the questions asked: 1. In the time we have been doing this tour, we have not had any problems with any passengers regarding the altitude. 2. We recommend bringing gloves, a thick jacket for the cold, a sweater underneath, an extra T-shirt in case you sweat while climbing, 6 liters of water, and sweets. 3. At the place of arrival in the vehicle, some porters can help you to take your things up and down (this payment is direct with them). 4. Luggage can be left at your hotel in Antigua Guatemala and picked up before your departure back to Guatemala City.

    • GTM Tour Guide and Travel ServicesOperatorWritten August 2024

      See your dates, I do recommend traveling from Guatemala City airport on Monday on arrival to Antigua, staying overnight there, and Tuesday departure to Acatenango. Wednesday back from Acatenango to Antigua and then to Guatemala City and the next day, ready to depart from your hotel to the airport. If you are interested, I can provide accommodation in Guatemala City.
