The best experience - The best experience I have had so far, we made a stop at a Laguna to take pictures, the tour was done with patience without running to finish quickly, the guide Andre always willing to help us and take pictures, the Van that transports to the places is new and is super safe. Super recommend the tour, where it is something unique and not very tourist to the moment, which makes the experience even better.
