Insanely beautiful scenery my friend, stunning work!

[@MaddieTravel]

Aww thank you so much!!

[@NikkiTomlin]

Omg you had such good conditions for sunrise! It was so windy the morning I went that I could hardly breath lol either way through it is definitely and experience I will never forget!

[@MaddieTravel]

Really?? That sounds awful ha. I have to go back and do it again though because there weren't any big eruptions when I went 😭

[@NikkiTomlin]

@@MaddieTravel nooooo :( I wanna go back again too because I took zero videos of the eruptions at night and I wanna have better conditions for sunrise 😅

I'm so excited for you, you're going to have a great time!! Thanks for watching & being a subscriber ♥️

[@AHEden]

Thank you so much for such a clear explanation! I’m heading there this month, can’t wait!!

[@MaddieTravel]

You'll love it!!

[@jedesmith]

Did you go in the rainy season. We are going this month and I’m worried about the rain, mud, and views

[@MaddieTravel]

I went mid May. We had a lot of cloud coverage but it did clear out at some times. It's really difficult to tell what the weather will be like :/ I hope you have a great time though. You'll LOVE Guatemala. I hope you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching & being a subscriber 💛

[@gryziemax8119]

Were you a solo female traveler for this adventure? Asking because I might be too. Just wondering how safe it is?

[@MaddieTravel]

I was solo for this. I went with Wicho & Charlie's and never felt unsafe. Before the hike and during I made a lot of friends, so I never felt alone. You'll have a great time!! Thanks for watching & being a subscriber 💛

[@stillwateracoustic]

I may hike this in April - how cold was it? I am packing for being on the hot coast also and packing light, but may squeez in a cap and gloves if needed

[@MaddieTravel]

With Wicho & Charlie's they have jackets, gloves, beanies & everything/anything that you might need for rent!! I hope you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching & being a subscriber 💛
