Nice walk with some interesting points. Recommend waterproof boots and a torch for thr tunnel section.

Well organised from the hotel pick up to the drop off afterwards. Paulo our guide worked hard to make sure everybody in the group was comfortable with the pace and kept informed about what was happening. The poxt walk coffee/drinks stop was definitely a case of going the extra mile! Definitely Recommended!!

Excellent tour!

Paulo was excellent on our tour! It was quite a leisure walk, with some inclines but nothing too strenuous. Lovely views! Definitely bring waterproof shoes as the tunnels are quite wet.

Enjoyable hike to 25 Fountains

We were collected on time and had a pleasant drive to the start point. Our guide was very considerate of our safet, priding torches for the tunnel and tailed the walk to our needs. Our guide was very interesting and well informed about the environment, flora and fauna of the area. He allowed ample time to take photos and look at the native vegetation and birds. We would certainly book with them again and recommend them to friends.

Excellent hike with a knowledgeable guide.

The hike was excellent. Our guide was knowledgeable about the area, and very considerate about our abilities. As a 75 year old I was initially concerned about keeping up. I needn't have worried and I felt well looked after. Beautiful scenery and an amazing waterfall.
