“I had an incredible day! My guide Maxi was super friendly, punctual and spoke very good English. He made sure that I was comfortable throughout the trip, even stopping at a pharmacy for me to get medicine for my cold. He also took so many amazing pictures for me, which was much appreciated! The hike up to the temple wasn't too difficult and the views over the rice terraces were beautiful. I also got to try some delicious local coffee and fried banana and I talked to the locals, who were all really friendly. The waterfall was simply stunning! There are also loads of amazing photo opportunities there. This trip…”

He didn’t mind all of our questions about his country. He was so patient with us as the hike back up is a journey and not the easiest but worth it. They even took the best pictures of me in the waterfall much better pics than my own. Diego was such a wonderful tour guide if you can get him do it! He makes you feel just like family.”
