Be warned, this trek up the mountains is very physically demanding so take careful consideration. Nicolas was my tour guide and he was fantastic. Any help, questions, or requests I had he was able to respond very well. The trek up the mountains will take you roughly 3 hours, almost the same going down and the views you get going both ways are wonderful provided the weather is good... I managed to get alot of great pics! Nicolas picked me up at my hotel at around 7:30 am and I was back by 12:30 am. When you return depends on how long you take during the hike. All in all, fantastic tour. Thank you for the memories!

This is an experience!! The service was personalized with a friendly, knowledgeable guide. You get an amazing view, experience, and workout from this tour. Walking poles, snacks, and drinks are provided. I would recommend you come prepared with the appropriate clothes, shoes, a hat, and a backpack. Also, I would highly recommend sunscreen. It's to your discretion if you want to bring extra snacks and water too. I can see this hike being difficult to anyone who doesn't come prepared or is not in the mood for an extraneous workout.
