5.00This was a great activity but be prepared for lots of steps and a very steep hike down. Bring water, wear a hat and sunblock. The Monastery and Black Madonna were also worthwhile. The views are beautifully stunning,

5.00This was an amazing experience and well worth the time and money! Our guide Anthony was a perfect fit! Would definitely do again but needed more time at the location to fit in all we wanted to do!
Beware of the tour to see The Black Madonna if it includes the Nature walk, you can be deceived.

3.00The experience was good but missed the most important part of the tour to see The Black Madonna, the same day they said we can't do it because it was open to the public but we were not provided with the tickets to do it individually. If it includes the Nature walk in the experience it is misleading the religious aspect isn't important to the. It was for me as well as 4 other people in the tour. We went mainly to see the Image.
