It was a great day. Just the route to the volcano was beautiful. The hike to the top impressive and the descent was the icing on the cake. The guide tried very hard to take beautiful pictures, was very friendly and helpful. He also told us a lot about nature and other things we asked about. We were happy that we had a private tour and also with the guide we were lucky.
So satisfying!

Our tour was absolutely fantastic. The ride to the site was smooth and comfortable, and we really appreciated not having to carry our boards since everything was taken care of for us. Sergio, our guide, was incredibly friendly, attentive, and full of knowledge. He shared interesting facts along the way and made the whole experience feel personal and fun. He also captured amazing photos and videos for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. We saw larger groups on the trail and felt so glad that we decided to spend a little more for a private tour. It made all the difference. Sergio was kind and patient, always checking in to make sure we were comfortable and letting us move at our own pace. The views were stunning, the sandboarding was exhilarating, and even the hike up was enjoyable in its own way. That said, the hike can be a bit tiring, especially in the heat, but once you reach the top, the hardest part is over. The trail flattens out and it is a short walk to the starting point. One tip, bring a bandana. You will definitely want to shower afterward since you will end up with volcanic grit in your hair, face, clothes, and every little corner you can imagine. Still, it was absolutely worth it and a highlight of our trip.
