Pacaya exceeded my expectations. the ascent was a continuous steep climb with barely any flat surface. All but one person in the group had to ride a horse going up. But the view from the top was definitely amazing. The guide also had some marshmallow he roasted using steam seeping from the ground. Only complaint was that I was picked up 1 hr later than what was advised. And the driver seemed to try to make up for time by driving extremely fast.
Hike is relatively easy, but in case there is a problem, horses are provided for 100 QTZ (one way). I advise against taking the horses though, since I feel like they don't treat them well. Unfortunately it was cloudy and I wasn'r really able to see anything. Hiking shoes are recommended but it can also be done in sneakers.
