I took this tour on Jan 20th and had great time, the breathtaking views on the mountain top and the sound of stream gurgling down in the valley, it all made the effort so worth taking! My tour guide Wanda was such wonderful lady and she help me great deal, she encouraged me and protected me, without her, I probably won’t finish the tour, thanks Wanda! I booked the tour from Expedia and I didn’t saw as much information as I saw later, maybe make sure that all places who promote your tour publish all the information, this tour is physically and mentally very challenge and may not be suitable to everyone!
