“We had a nice day, and visited several trails, including a lake and a waterfall. We were not offered the option to do a longer hike or swim but rather driven from one trail to the other. From the description of the event and other comments, I expected a bit more engagement from the guide who was driving us around rather guiding us in nature. Nevertheless, the friendly group of other hikers, the sunny day and the stunning views made this a worthwhile experience 🤗”
