My partner and I went to do the Death Road accompanied by two super guides, Freddy and Nico, and the best driver, Don Benito, and the experience was brutal. The treatment from the three was exquisite, they take care of and pamper you if you don't feel safe and they accompany you very well at all times. Affectionate, fun, and attentive at all times (all three). I would repeat with this agency for this adventure and any other without hesitation, they are magnificent!! Highly recommended!!
