Beautiful views and very relaxing and peaceful place. The walking is not too strenuous and the visit to the church in the building was interesting. Our guide Ivonne was very informative and helpful. I would definitely recommend this tour. If you want to include wine tasting you need to book that in advance and pay for it separately. When I booked, the title said hike and wine tasting which was a bit misleading.
