It was a great tour! Our driver David was very helpful, and the guide Nicolas did a good job. At first it was cloudy and stormy, due to the thunderstorm we even had to cut our hike short and go to the next spot. I was worried that we won't see the sunset, but we actually saw more than expected: sunset, lightnings and rainbow at the same time. It was unforgettable, also the snacks were really nice. I can totally recommend this tour

The only thing that disappointed me was the fact that while the tour was meant to be a sunset one, we started earlier and got back way before sunset. The park closed earlier than usual for safety reasons (they were expecting a thunderstorm). Other than that, loved it.
