We had an awesome time!!! The tour was fantastic. Diomedes was very attentive to my friends who were struggling a little with the altitude. He carried an oxygen tank just in case. Santiago, the driver, was also with us. He was a great driver! The road was dirt after the cutoff for about an hour or so. Cute countryside! What a beautiful area! So glad we did it!

Wonderful. Our guide was so amazing, this hike is a pretty tough hike and we were suffering from some altitude sickness. Our guide stayed with us and kept encouraging us to make it to the top. It was absolutely worth it when you made it to the top, and I would not have been able to get there without the help of our guide. I would highly recommend this tour.

It was amazing. They were really accommodating since I wasn't able to meet the shaman the night before. I was able to meet the shaman right after the rainbow mountain hike.
