This was an all day tour that involved some hiking with stairs. But Benjamin spoke good English and was incredibly informative. I learned so much in one day that I will carry with me for a lifetime! I saw active volcanoes, cloud forest, Crater lake, Mayan Ruins and Pyramids.

Helpful?

The guide, Benjamin, was excellent! He knows a lot about the places we went to. However, I didn’t like that I was in the car for an hour and a half because we had to go back three times to a meeting point to pick up someone but didn’t show up. The company MUST make a rule that the driver can wait for 5 minutes and leave. Learn to respect the time of those who were picked up first/early.
