No recomiendo, si no tienes buen rendimiento físico, no vayas, el camino es una vereda mal hecha, incómoda y escabrosa, muy empinada, para volver tienes que subir ese mismo camino, una caminata, por camino que parece de montaña por 45 minutos, te cobran $8 para entrar con un guía que lo único que hace es existir a tu lado porque el camino es escabroso, pero es un solo camino, no te puedes perder, además, si sufres un golpe de calor, sufres un accidente en el agua o te desmayas por sobreesfuerzo, no creas que el guía está listo ni preparado para atenderte y ayudar, el lugar es bonito, se podría disfrutar un poco si no tuvieras que pagar precio de extranjero por explorar un sitio nacional.

It's incredibly expensive. We hired a so-called guide who claimed to know everything, but he charged us $8 as if he were going to whisk us away. Plus, he was completely unprepared, since my companion had a sugar crash. The guide, whose name starts with F, didn't care and continued the tour, leaving us behind. $8 isn't worth it for the little to no information the guide gave us. He spent all his time with the girls, and it's really overpriced for what it offers. If you're going to charge $8, at least use that money to fix the streets. They're more crooked than the potholed streets in my neighborhood. And please, put up signs, because the guides aren't prepared for emergencies and they don't know how to wait; they rush us around. Bad experience - 1 star
