Was fun and interesting, sooo much hiking and climbing in one day though, wow. Our leg calves hurt the next day, but fortunately we could sit and rest during the transfer day the next day. Thought the volcano hike was going to be largely flat, but it actually involved a lot of climbing rocks and rocky stairs part way up too. Glad we could see all we did in one day though.

Samuel made the tour fun and educational. Enjoyed being able to see some of the animals through a spotting scope. The guides did a great job taking pictures through the scope so we had close up photos.

The Hanging bridges and waterfall experience was amazing . The dip in the waterfall was the highlight. It was family friendly . The volcano hike was not great as there was not much to do there.
