Great experience even on a cloudy day
Elizabeth_L, Mar 2023
We had the unfortunate rainy cloudy day but still went with Victor on the hike. It was amazing! Whole family had a great time. It’s a hike that takes you up and down hills lots of leg workout. I was told by Viator that I could bring my dog. DO NOT BRING YOUR DOG! For the safety of everyone in your group including the dog. Thank God Victor insisted he stay back. I would’ve been miserable worrying about my dog.
A beautiful adventure

I had an amazing day and this was a amazing experience!! With that being said it was definitely challenging at times for me I think mostly fear was the main factor vs physical part for me there are some steep parts. It definitely requires agility and being in shape it is a pretty extensive hike but it was so worth it!! Victor was a amazing guide and assured me I could get through every part I struggled with even when I didn’t think I could. Thank you so much Victor it was so nice to meet you and I am so glad I went on this adventure it was absolutely a day I will never forget!! :)
Challenging but great hike!!

We were a party of 4 with 3 celebrating their birthday. Victor was a great guide! As long as you don’t have bad knee problems, this hike was fun and somewhat challenging. The views are spectacular and you don’t need to bring a camera. Victor will capture your adventure as you enjoy the hike!
Amazing amazing amazing time

Victor and Drew were both amazing! For starters, we never would have been able to find or complete the hike without their help. But beyond that, they were very helpful, entertaining, and great photographers!! I highly recommend this tour! The hike itself can appear daunting, but trust Victor and Drew to get you through the end. Trust me, you can make it and it’ll be so so worth it!! Definitely come in hiking shoes if possible or at least sneakers (that’s what I did).
The tour was originally sold out when I looked, but I just knew it couldn’t be missed so I kept checking a couple times throughout the day for a couple days hoping someone would cancel and at last they did and I snagged them!! So for others, keep checking back if they sell out!
Worth every bit

Awesome experience
Christine_F, Oct 2022
The hike was amazing but certainly dangerous at times. It Definately tests a fear of heights. The guide is super knowledgeable and helpful and very enjoyable.
Awesome family adventure
TERRELL_R, Aug 2022
My family loved the hike and it was a memorable, unique experience for everyone, including my 9 year old. The hike was a good mix of up and down and different things to see and do so it never felt overwhelming. I would say skip the zoo or sea world and go enjoy a hike with Victor.
Hidden Gem + Amazing Guide
Robin_J, Jul 2022
I took my adult son on this trip as a surprise Mom-Son outing and it was incredible. Victor is extremely knowledgeable about the surroundings, how to navigate them, the history of the area and much more. I don't like heights and was wondering how scared I was going to be and it wasn't scary at all. There are some drops close by but with hiking shoes and Victor's tips I never felt like I was in any danger. There are some steep climbs, a short rope descent (sometimes a climb if he changes it up), a rock slide, and endless beautiful sights. I would not recommend this for pre-teen children and definitely bring the proper shoes, but other than that it was absolutely amazing and a must-do!
Do this hike!
Marcia_G, Jul 2022
This experience is a must do! Victor is an amazing guide who is very friendly & funny, and he is very skilled and informed about the area. My family has done a lot of hiking and this is such a unique area and experience! You do need to be moderately fit and willing to step beyond your comfort zone to really enjoy this experience, but Victor does an excellent job of explaining exactly how to tackle each tricky spot. Please don’t hesitate to do this hike, the experience and scenery make it one of my top 5!
Awesome hike with an awesome guide!
Ed_J, Jul 2022
