The places we visited were amazing. The buffet had multiple options for all type of diets. Warning it is a very long tour - full day. Started around 9am, arrived to the hotel almost 12 hours later. We recommend it.

We did the walk and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Everything was very well organized, but what really made the difference was the coordinator of the ride. Since we were picked up we felt in good hands: the coordinator was punctual, friendly and very helpful. He always kept an eye on everyone being comfortable and explained clearly the itinerary of the day, the ground conditions and the schedules to follow. The tour coordinator took the time to tell us the history of the place, interesting facts of the local environment and culture, and answered all our questions enthusiastically. You rating that he knows the area very well and is passionate about what he does, which made the ride not only beautiful visually, but also culturally enriching. In addition, their friendly and close attitude helped the whole group to connect: it generated a Relaxed Mood where we all felt contemplated and well taken care of. I would definitely recommend this walk mainly because of how the coordinator made everything flow, taking care of the details and making sure we enjoyed every moment. A very worthwhile experience!
