Hola, I am interested in taking your overnight camping tour or day tour of Iztaccihuatl. From what I read, the best time ov year goes through May, but I am wondering if sometime during the first two weeks of June is still possible? Do you recommend this time, or is there are likelihood of bad weather or trip cancellations? I have not yet booked my flights, and would consider end of May also, but beginning of June is preferred. However this would be a highlight of my trip, so I want to ensure this tour would work out well first.
Thank you for your guidance!
Melissa
