Exceptional hiking tour! - This is an exceptional hiking tour along a beautiful trail through a rustic village and up and down a lush forested mountain. The three waterfalls along the trail are stunning. Samuel, our guide and tour operator, skillfully and safely helped us navigate the terrain and made the most of our experience by telling us about the flora and rock formations along the trail. The Gorreana tea plantation was a lovely stop after a vigorous hike. Samuel’s explanation about tea harvesting and processing was very informative. The warm cup of tea was most welcome!

Samuel provided an excellent experience for us. - Samuel was outstanding! Our 4-hour hiking and tea plantation tour was excellent, all because of Samuel. He provided great information about all sorts of topics. Due to rescheduling the day of our tour, it was just the four of us, and Samuel was very accommodating since two of us weren't up for too much hiking that day. We had a wonderful experience due to Samuel. Thank you!
