From the moment we were picked up, the day was nothing short of amazing. Our guide, Pablo, was warm, friendly, and made everyone feel immediately welcome. He gave us a clear overview of the day’s activities, and then we were off on an unforgettable adventure. We learned so much about the local woods, plants, and the history of the area—Pablo’s knowledge and passion really brought it all to life. The views were breathtaking, the air was filled with the scent of herbs, and we explored places we never would have found on our own. It was a fantastic day out with family and incredible value for money. Pablo even helped us capture some great memories with photos throughout the day. Be warned: you'll be wonderfully exhausted by the end, so plan to relax afterwards! Would 100% recommend this experience to anyone looking for a unique, enriching, and fun-filled day.
