This was a relaxing experience where we even saw a troupe of vicuña passing by. Our guide was fun and informative - nice combo. I would have liked to do more hiking. Other than that, an enjoyable day at high altitude in a gorgeous countryside.
Everything they offered was fulfilled. All the facilities and excursions were very pleasant.

Perfect organization! I made 2 excursions with the agency with 2 different guides, who knew their subjects very well and were very attentive to the group and our well-being. Traveling for 2 months in South America, this is the first agency I take that is on time. Timely departure, timing respected. The buses were comfortable. Great agency and in addition cheap at all. No surprise of unforeseen additional costs. The value for money is excellent. I highly recommend!

The Ybeth guide was attentive at all times and needs of the group. My friend had a fall the day before and was attentive to it every time it took effort to get down the road. She suggested poses and places to take photos, thanks to her the experience was better.
The landscapes are beautiful as you can appreciate every part of the place. I was impressed and was able to take very beautiful photos. Honorable mention of the Guide because it always gave us the clear information of the place and was very tolerant of the times it gave us to take each photo
