Sunset, volcano views and new friends. Come and join us on a trip to Pacaya volcano.
We can't get enough of Pacaya! This charming volcano might be smaller than its counterparts but it definitely doesn't compromise when it comes to the view.
Best of all, with just a 1.5 hour hike up it's not nearly as daunting to climb, making it perfect for a short afternoon trip.
