The guide was very knowledgeable about Cajas, however, I reserved a full day (8 hour) trip and it only lasted 6 hours. That was a bummer. We also only hiked one fairly easy trail, followed by walking up some stairs to a viewpoint with a radio tower. The tour didnt blow me away.

La visita fue con un día frío y lluvioso, Diego nos permitió caminar por al menos una hora y conocer su ecosistema y belleza.
