We weren't entirely sure... - We weren't entirely sure what to expect, but we had a wonderful time. Communication prior to the day was fantastic - we arranged for pickup very near our accommodations, which was nice. Our tour guide, Pedro, was great. He was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Unfortunately, we weren't able to swim due to a) the rapid waterfall and b) the water vs air temperature (was rather cold!). But the hiking was superb. It was super interesting to visit the small town of Fafião and learn about the culture and history. Would definitely recommend this hiking day to people looking for some variety in their plans/vacation - nice to get out of the city for a day.

Book it! - I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone, particularly if you’re on your own! Our tour guide was Diogo, he was very good at making conversation and helped us learn a lot about life in the national park. The fact he had a strong relationship with the local people meant they were happy to show us their local traditions. Overall a great day, thank you!

Diogo was the best tour guide - Best experience I ever had! Diogo was amazing and patient. Im 57 years old and going back up the mountain was tough but he was patient with me and told me to take my time but I did it! I would do it again and will tell others to go on this journey!!!

She did an amazing job storytelling and talking to us about the history and future of the national park and its villages. I am very thankful that to have had Ines as my guide.
