4.00I was very excited to partake in this experience. I would highly recommend this tour group and hike. However, with that being said, come prepared for a hike. I am not a hiker, but I am an athlete and am fairly fit and do work out. I wore a light hiking sneaker by on cloud and it was not suitable for this hike. It is important to have good gear regardless of how prepared you are. I will also write a review on the on cloud hiking shoes. I slipped once, bounced back and was fine. But took 2 tumbles. This terrain is significantly rocky and it was a wet drizzle day. I could have been hurt far worse and obviously took the risk on my own. The tour guys were a great help and looked out for me provided tips and I got thru it. Make sure you have the right hiking shoes!!
Excellent Hike Experience

5.00Our guide, Teodore (not sure I spell it right) is very friendly and patient. He’s really good taking video and photos. Very glad to meet him, he’s also very good at pacing everyone on the way up to the Pulpit Rock.
