My daughter and I signed for this UTV excursion into the steeped, slippery mountain terrains, raining, crossing through the flood roads. Arrived at the waterfall and the water is slightly muddy due to overnight rain in the upstream. The water is refreshing and the air is fresh. The we proceeded to the peak of the volcano crest and overseeing the Pacific ocean and the 6 km radius of El Valle nesting on the crater. What a spectacular views. The guide is amazing and very good driving skills thru such muddy rough terrain without capsize or sink into multiple deep potholes. Bravo to him.
