    Joshua is an excellent guide. Very personable, helpful and kind. He created a hiking trail that suited my granddaughter and a different one that suited me. Highly recommend.

    Was a great hike - beautiful views. Our tour guide Rico was knowledgeable and really helpful throughout the excursion. My son loved it (age 11) and as long as your kiddo is an active 8 year old — they’re sure to have fun time.

    I haven't gotten to hike in the woods and the mountains for a long time, and this trip brought back that nostalgia I've missed. Our tour guide, Brennon, was very attentive. He checked on everyone in the group to assure we were safe and having fun. He even taught valuable techniques for handling the higher altitudes and dry climate. We were brought to some of the best hiking spots and it was all around a great interactive and educational experience.
