What you can expect

    The ride is up a steep, rough, dirt road. Starting in Santa Cruz la Laguna, and stops 2000 ft. / 600 meters above Lake Atitlan. You will have views of 6 volcanos, including the active Fuego volcano. It is common to view ash pillowing into the sky from the Fuego volcano.

    Enjoy a complimentary cup of coffee as you watch the sunrise. This experience is rated “easy, and exciting”, as no hiking is required. Be transported in the back of a pickup truck with side bars. This type of transport is common in Guatemala as a form of local transportation.

    Hold on to the side bars of the truck while it is driving up and down the dirt road. This is a great alternative to the famous Indian Nose sunrise, but involves less logistics and costs if you are staying in Santa Cruz.
