I really enjoyed the tour thanks to the team (guide and the drivers) they were very knowledgeable and kind. Mr driver (sorry don’t know the name) paid for my coffee which was very sweet and being a solo female traveller these little gestures mean a lot. I would highly recommend this tour. There’s a couple of things to note though - no food/drinks are allowed inside the bus and if you are planning to take it early morning as I did I recommend to plan around it as most cafes are not open till 9 AM in the morning I find one or two near my hostel thankfully which were opening right at 8AM and ofc had to rush to the meeting pt. Also there are no charging portals in the bus and the tour is jam packed - the time you get to yourself simply vanishes particularly in Ronda…so I recommend to carry power bank. Thanks Lasya

Guide was absolutely amazing, she powered through the horrible weather. She was very informative, also even though the weather was horrible, she did not rush through giving information, and was very enthusiastic. Also, I was terrified of heights and she really held my hands and guided me through the murder bridge. An absolute gem she was! A beautiful trail, definitely worth it.
