Although the hike is tough, the views of the lake and mountains are absolutely spectacular. I loved my group and our guide, and breakfast and lunch were good. Only two complaints: there is no beverage included in the lunch meal and I got some contradicting information/answers about return time from Kedi, who was not my guide. My guide and the views made up for that.

We had a great time on this tour with Cesar, who was a great guide. The food was surprisingly excellent as well and everything was very well organised!

Trekking is the challenging
Part of the journey because the mountain is very steep. The weather also is cold that makes you enjoy the trekking.
