I want to recognize the great team behind this agency, starting with the coordinator, driver Rubén, guide Elías, a very helpful and friendly treatment that they always showed, since I am not the fastest in climbing mountains, I had a lot of motivation and help from them. The guide (Elías) is appreciated for feeling that empathy, the breakfast and food on the tour were very delicious... excellent service.

Wow! You can't miss it! A unique view. The guide was attentive at all times, always waiting for us to move forward, always encouraging us, the logistics were excellent, the transportation was on time, the buffet food that the tour included was delicious, we tried several typical dishes and the plus was the best group photos taken by the guide.
