Pick up on time, good transportation, but the seats could be more comfortable for a 2 hour and 30 minute transfer, good breakfast included, although the provider of our activity did not arrive, his colleagues provided the service and it was excellent, Jose, Azucena and Jacobo were excellent guides, quite complete, entertaining, interesting and fulfilling tour, I recommend it 100%

Very interesting and rewarding. It allows you to see the local culture in a day. Very beautiful lake that would deserve to be spent several days.
