Poor excuse for an adventure! - Driver later but he was an excellent driver. Probably would not have booked if we had known the length of drive that it was. We had to wait an additional three hours to have the rest of the people in the bus get done with their activities. They should not be combining activities that are different time lengths on the same transportation. If they are doing this, they should be offering something for the other people to be doing besides sitting around and getting totally bored in the rain. The tram ride was only 1hr and 10mins. Travel time was longer that the experience. Our guide was not very knowledgeable or fluent in English.

Very poorly organized - The organization was terrible! We were on the cable car for about 1.5 hours, which was a nice experience! But the price is not reasonable! We had to wait about 4 hours after the cable car ride at the starting point before we were driven back to the hotel because other guests on the bus had booked a second tour, but we were not informed of this. There were 7 of us waiting who hadn't booked anything else! From an organizational point of view, vehicles would have to be used for the different tours! We will think very carefully about whether we book a tour with Tipadvistor again! It is probably better to drive to Braulio Park ourselves! Helga and Sepp
