Full description
Depart Mexico City and spend the day touring the Izta-Popo National Park. Head to the foothills of Popocatépetl to start your hike up Iztaccíhuatl from the base of the dormant volcanic mountain. Take in the beautiful scenery and fresh air as you walk in a small group. Your own skill level will determine how high the hike will go, so you won't feel strained beyond your abilities. Popocatépetl is Mexico’s second highest peak and part of the tour offers splendid views of the valley and village of Amecameca below. Marvel at the 3,700-meter high mountain of La Joya in the famous Paso de Cortés, named after the Spanish conquerors who crossed it on their way to Mexico-Tenochtitlan in 1519.  Then, return to Mexico City and reflect on the tranquility of the mountain and the miraculous wonder of nature.

The trip was amazing cause the view during the hike is breathtaking and once in a lifetime. I have felt so content by the end of the hike. In terms of difficulty it is better if you have some fitness to keep up with the group. But doable at your own pace. And recommended to carry snacks or energy source to intake during the hike. Some things which I would expect improvement is the vehicle they provided for transportation could be more comfortable for the price we paid. I barely had a proper seat since the van was crowded. It is slightly over priced and lunch or some kind of breakfast should be included.

This was a fantastic tour. Super good value for the money. Amazing hike, stunning views. If you don’t have the time or level of endurance to scale the entire volcano, this tour is the second best thing. I’m not the most fit or athletic, and I still recommend this tour, if only for the scenery.

The experience itself was really good! Beautiful scenery! We got to climb one more base as was planned. Wasn’t easy to reach even harder to get down but totally worth the view. Guide seemed to be new to this. He seemed not to care much about the less fit group members. We as a leading group completely left others behind. When descending group was totally separated. And everyone was pretty much on its own
