Nice trip but be prepared for a long day of driving. Guide & driver were very friendly. We did see 2 condors which were impressive but the lookout area was very crowded. I would advise doing the short hike with the guide to the lookout for good canyon views. Thermal waters were basic but an enjoyable break from being on the road. Lunch buffet was good with a lot of choice thankfully, as we were all starving by the time we arrived. Overall a worthwhile experience.

The guide and driver were very good with their job. However I feel there needs to be a warning for children especially because of the potential for altitude sickness on the drive. My son is 12 and he moved through it pretty good (vomiting 5 times) but the seven-year-old of the other family did not do so well. I feel there needs to be some information about how to prepare for altitude sickness. Otherwise the day and the adventure was amazing! And I really appreciated our guide and driver.
