This tour should have been listed as moderate intensity. It was quite steep at times and with the rain the ground was very wet with slippery rocks and mud. 3 of the 4 of us slipped/fell during the tour.

Hike was MUCH harder than expected. Need to flag this one as a harder hike, no tennis shoes, steep up/down slippery conditions. Of 4 guests, 3 fell. Need to be in pretty good shape to make this hike. Guides were outstanding.

Very supportive of our young children. Knowledgeable and kind.
