Best volcano hike ever! - One of the hardest but most amazing hikes we’ve ever done! The only way I want to descend down a volcano/mountain again is by sliding down with an ice pick! We had four fantastic guides (Osiel, Phillipe x2 and Benjamin) who went out of their way to make sure we were safe the whole time especially when reaching the summit and had to battle some crazy wind. And they did it all with a great sense of humour. Highly recommend this tour company and ask for these guys - Muchos gracias!!

A unique experience of 10 - A 10 experience is definitely worth it and is something you will remember forever. We were a large group (8) and had 4 wonderful guides who not only took care of us and supported us at all times, but also made the adventure level up. The good vibes, nature, physical activity, the adventurousness of climbing a snowy volcano...all added up, and it was amazing to reach the top to see a smoking crater and an overwhelming landscape surrounded by as many volcanoes, lakes and snowy mountains. We can’t stop thanking the Zenit team for creating experiences like this, and especially for how good they are at taking intelligent care of us and creating super good vibes. Thanks team ❤ Idoia and Paul

Awesome! - Amazing experience! Great team and guides! I had started forming a blister on the way up and was really struggling, however one of the guides had a patch, and it saved my ass! We were able to summit. Beautiful views, beautiful experience! Would do it again if I could, but the hike itself is really difficult, even if you’re fit

Great experience! - We had been recommended to the agency. Have rebooked the flights especially for good weather. Absolutely paid off. Super Guides. There are several guides with you, so you could descend if you could not make it, and the rest of the group could still climb to the summit. It was super taken care of. The equipment provided was very good, you should still pack warm clothes yourself in winter. We were there after about 5h ascent 😍
