The views of the volcano... - The views of the volcano are spectacular (if the skies are clear). The hot springs are relaxing and there are plenty to discover so that it did not feel crowded. The buffet lunch in the restaurant was delicious. The changing room and lockers were convenient for day trip travelers.

Good Service - It is a basic experience and in the thermals everything is expensive so you have to take everything from home.

Tour guide tried to switch locations, then canceled on us - When I wrote to the tour guide to confirm we were going to the listed hotsprings on the website, they cacncelled on us the day before. It left us with nothing to do on our last day there. Terrible service.

Disappointing - Poor, overpriced experience. Tried to skip the volcano. Left us for 6 hours at the hot springs. No reason for it to start at 430am. Don't recommend at all.

Disappointed. - Bad attention and seriousness. They sell you one thing and give you another. It's not Baldi Hot Springs. It is to a different place with less quality and service. The guide didn't even know where we were going, it seemed more like she was going on vacation. Disappointed and not recommended at all.

Unhappy - Nothing described in the information was true I only spent 20 minutes in the viewpoint of the volcano and 2 hours in the hot springs the worst was the guide !!!! I didn’t know where she was standing or know the place either I didn’t know anything when you asked her something .....what if I knew was to hurry at lunchtime to leave !!! 'Cause I wanted to get to the bad bunny concert that's what I talk to the driver all the way through. We didn't eat lunch at all unhappy and the whole group thought the same thing. We were 9 people. Until I wanted to know who you are. To ask for half my money.
