The coolest tour and highlight of our trip. We had a mobile impaired person and it was difficult but do-able. Coming down was much easier than going up. Highly recommend.

This was a jaw dropping experience. Being able to visit this site was mind blowing. The guide was absolutely fantastic. She was knowledgeable, took time to answer questions AND had a great sense of humor. Her name was Anna, with the crazy red hair! I cannot recommend this enough. Wear comfortable shoes! 10/10!!
