Reviews

The experience with the guide was an absolute highlight of our trip. Even before the hike, he was very attentive and patient to try and customize the experience to our needs. When a complication arose with our luggage, he offered to lend us hiking boots; when complication arose with pick location and weather, he adjusted the time and picked us up at the hotel. Beyond the breathtaking views of the hike, there were may special touches like a delicious home-made sandwich for lunch and local snacks and drinks. He was an excellent guide and provided us everything we needed for a successful and highly rewarding experience. I cannot recommend him highly enough!!!!
