Overview

We work directly with the team of guides who are in charge of caring for the Licancabur Volcano. This is a community-based venture that is responsible for providing certified guides who have long known volcano routes.

We also have transport from San Pedro to Bolivia and vice versa.

We include all meals and also a place to sleep in the Licancabur Volcano mountain retreat. This makes us different from companies that do not have high mountain registration.
