BlueSky Adventures Reviews 8

We did a private tour with BlueSky Adventures to Pacaya and had such an amazing experience! Our guides were Marvin and Ruby, and they were superb. Marvin was very good with my kids and they loved him so much! It helps that he's a father of 4 himself! We had hot choc and banana bread for breakfast at the top and it was the best thing ever. Overall 100% recommend Bluesky to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy agency in Antigua!

One of the best hikes of my life. Blue Sky took care of everything (gear, food, guides). All great. The ascent is tough but the guides were super helpful and motivating. At the top it was misty and you could hear Fuego rumbling in the background, really special atmosphere. If you're doing the Acatenango hike, go with Blue Sky!

For me, one of the better organizations! The guides were super friendly and clear, and spoke really good English. The basecamp and food were very well arranged. I did get some extra fleece layers myself for warmth — super easy and cheap to get at Megapaca. I also rented a good jacket somewhere else.

The only thing that could’ve been smoother was breakfast. It was great that you could order it in advance, which meant starting the trip with a solid base, but it did take quite a long time. Maybe it would be better to limit the choices to 2–3 options? Everyone would still be perfectly happy, and it would allow for an earlier start and maybe a bit more time between the Acatenango hike and an optional Fuego hike 🙂

Anyway… top organization, I’d definitely go with them again!

We joined onto the BlueSky Acatenango hike after a friend we’d made earlier in our travels had told us he had booked with them and for us to join. We are so glad that we did as BlueSky were fantastic! The guides were absolutely brilliant, great at looking after everyone, making sure we were safe, helping when anyone struggled with the altitude, and generally just great to spend time with and good senses of humour.

The briefing before was very comprehensive, and the equipment was decent (and well provided as definitely needed). We had everything we needed and were in great hands from start to finish!

The hike itself is incredible, seeing Fuego constantly erupting was unreal, and the summit was magical. It’s a challenge and tough at times but so worth it and loads of fun! I’d recommend BlueSky to anyone doing this hike and we really liked their ethics and working with local women and general community too.

Thanks again. Pete & Weezy

We had a great experience doing the group tour. The base camp is at an amazing spot with direct view to Fuego. We felt informed and save both before, during and after the trip. The guides were professional and extremely helpful. One of us suffered a bit with the altitude and one of the 3 guides waited the whole time to make sure we would get there - even though the rest of the group was ahead. No rush, just letting us do it at a comfortable pace. And you can rent all the equipment you need at a reasonable price. We highly recommend using this company!

Amazing experience with Blue Sky on the Acatenango hike. The company was very professional, the guides were incredibly kind and caring, always making sure everyone was okay. The accommodation was great and the views from the cabins were absolutely stunning. I’m very satisfied and love the idea behind this project. Highly recommend!

trustworthy party, well organized and good experience.

This an amazing organisation! They are so friendly en will help you with anything.
Shout out to the crew for one of my best experiences ever!
