Visit the Lagoon! - As we were already a little tired from the other tours, this tour was more difficult to get to. But the good news is that there is the option of going up on horseback (which is what we did) and this allowed us to get to see a very beautiful view. I recommend!

Visit the Lagoon! - For me it was one of the hardest places to get to but it was one of the most worth it! The view is wonderful, I took beautiful photos and it is possible to go up on horseback (which makes getting there much easier for those who need it).

Beautiful landscapes - The landscapes are beautiful, the climb is quite difficult, the van stopped relatively far from where it could have stopped, the guide was quite happy, but he followed the trail ahead of the last ones, which I didn't like, it also said when I bought it that it would have oxygen If I needed it, but I didn't have it.

Rumantay Lagoon - Incredible experience, very lively guide, took incredible photos of us, I was just upset, because the package I hired included an oxygen cylinder (and this was not offered at any time, even though the difficulty in breathing was visible) the guide only offered an oil of herbs to help me breathe
