    This expedition was a very very very excellent experience. The crew, staff, and destinations were amazing. We were fortunate enough to have better than normal weather. I would definitely do this again with the same crew and staff. They were very knowledgeable and accommodating and had tons of experience. Artie, Nix, Woody, Neil, Sofia, and the rest of the team made this trip a very memorable trip. I also had a booking issue and it was resolved. If you have the time time, do this trip! You wont forget it.

    The tour was excellent. Everything was well planned. There was also a plan for the day it rained. It was also a fun day of exploring. The tour guide, Poalo, was great. He talked with each of us like we had been friends for a while and was able to answer questions about the nature and history of places we went. We had great views from all the hikes. Our tour guide worked so hard at guiding us during the day and also preparing for the next day's activities ( hike/meeting places/transportation/getting our lunches ). Everybody at Duo Torre was excellent. They were friendly and invited us to their tour and hotel as if we were friends coming to visit. It was nice to stay at one hotel and get to know the staff. Take this tour, you will really enjoy it and have many nice memories after the tour ends.
