    Het hiken was erg leuk om te doen. De gids vertelde ons veel informatie. Dit deed hij op een enthousiaste manier. Tijdens het eten was het erg rumoerig. Het hiken is niet voor iedereen geschikt!

    De gids was vriendelijk en enthousiast. Mooie hike. De inbegreoen lunch was oke, maar zou niet een plek zijn waar ik zelf zou gaan eten. Op zich zou een optie met een iets langere pauze waarbij je eigen meegebracht eten kan nuttigen voor mij prima zijn, en ook weer goedkoper.

    Unser Guide war sehr engagiert, hatte eine polnische Gruppe und uns zwei Deutsche dabei. Hat alles neben polnisch ausführlich auf deutsch erklärt. Die Tour war der Hitze angepasst nicht zu anstrengend mit sehr vielen Aussichtspunkten. Immer wieder mit Aussicht zum Wahrzeichen Gran Canarias. Meine Frau hatte ihren Pulli im Bus vergessen und unser Guide hat ihn am nächsten Tag bei uns im Hotel abgegeben! Dafür nochmal herzlichen Dank LG Matthias

    Het was een geweldige ervaring, een ervaren gids met veel kennis over de natuur. Heel handig waren de hikestokken deze kan ik iedereen aanbevelen, zeker wanneer je moest klimmen of afdalen was dit een goede hulp. Ook wandelschoenen zijn een must. De tour duurde tot ongeveer 14.00 uur daarna een autorit naar het restaurant alwaar de lunch was. Het is dus niet een hele dag hiken. Voor mij was dit voldoende. Volgend jaar weer, dan de hiketour naar de watervallen.

    Het was een geweldige ervaring. De wandeling was fantastisch. Hij heeft ons meegenomen naar het hoogste punt van Gran Canaria. Hij wist veel te vertellen over de natuur en Gran Canaria. De wandeling was ruim 9 km. Ik had dit voor geen goud willen missen. Ik zou geen min punten weten.
