Carry a bit of cash and take the horses up, you need to be in shape for the climb but the top is definitely worth it. Also, dress's warm it gets cold.
Definitely worth the money and early morning! Really enjoyed it, our guide was really friendly and answered our questions but also let us go off on our own when we wanted to.
Extra seats added in the bus made for an uncomfortable ride for all… 21 people in a sprinter van. The guide was kind and we enjoyed ourselves. The restaurant they take you to is a “tourist” buffet that runs out quickly. Decent value for $
