They accommodate us with other group as we want to share moments with people and that was organised well. our guide Willy was excellent,a lot of knowledge about plants and the area,and he looked after us very well, mainly when I felt a little unwell for short period of time. The accommodation in the oasis was very good with a good dinner. The only thing we found that could be improved it's to provide some kind of breakfast before the big ascent of the canyon,Willy found some coffee for us and we need It to buy biscuits, This should be provided without extra cost!!

The tour lasted exactly 4 hours. I met at the meeting spot at 9 am and was back in Yanahuara at 1 pm. The bus was comfortable but not air conditioned. We were about 25 people in our group. The driver Jose Jose was good. He talked about the sillar, origin of the volcanoes names, ariquepeña food, why people stack 3 rocks, etc. He spoke mostly in Spanish, but could speak English if asked. There was plenty of time to take photos. I recommend this tour. Note: bring insect repellent and sunscreen

Completely recomend this tour! Luisa (our tour guide) was extremely knowledgeable and nice. Our driver Michael was also really good and we never felt unsafe. The tour was very well organized. I recommend to include the meals when you book this tour.

The tour guide Michael is very knowledgeable, provides a lot of information during the trip, and takes care of the group members with meticulous arrangements.

Everything was fine, the lunches were very tasty, the guide did his best to give us as much information as possible and to see condor vultures.
