Amazing tour

It was one of the most special moments in my life! Feeling the energy of the place was breathtaking for me. So was camping under the stars, seeing the moonrise, sharing time with the amazing people of the grup and with Geordie, such a cool and respectful guide!

REAL experience

A wonderful guided interaction with nature. I loved the camp style sunset dinner and sunrise breakfast, sleeping in the open air under the stars, and collecting firewood off the highway. Highly recommend the experience.
