Very good experience,... - Very good experience, especially since I had not managed to book with a guide in French, we were surprised to have a guide who also spoke French.

Super experience. Stunning views and fun driving. - It was a unique experience, breathtaking scenery, eye for those who suffer from vertigo. The Pedro guide was very nice (it was in Spanish but we understood almost everything). So if you are in the area this stop is absolutely to do.

Breath taking. A must see! - The group was organized and the tour guide (Merce) took great care of us explaining every step in both English and Spanish. The experience is breath taking.. The trip included visiting white villages -on Sundays only- and that added to its beauty. The village of Odin is charming and fabulous.

Disappointed but beautiful - We booked with a French guide and the day before we were told that he would not come because not enough French, so we were 6 French disappointed, for my part I understood only half the visit, fortunately the route is beautiful. Ha by the way the starting point we were given was not the right one, still “fortunately” we arrived very early.

Mixed on orga - I booked a French guide....well it was Spanish / English.So I don't see why pay an ootion that doesn't exist. And I had to pay for a shuttle when I thought I had it in the formula. Otherwise the tour is good.

I extend my sincere... - I extend my sincere gratitude to our guide, Antonio, from La Garganta Activa, for his expertise, engaging demeanor, and patience. My three-star rating reflects an issue with Naturanda's scheduling. Despite confirming a 12 pm start time the previous day, I received a 9:45 pm WhatsApp notification of a change to 3:30 pm. On the day of the event, José from Naturanda further adjusted the time to 4:30 pm, explaining that he was coordinating with his boss. While I enjoyed the activity itself, the significant scheduling changes and resulting inconvenience warrant this feedback.

Views are Fabulous don’t book a guided tour - The actual walk and views were stunning. Sadly we were left underwhelmed with your process. After firstly having a change from midday to 3pm which effected our planned day. The meeting point organisation and size of group, 30 certainly isn’t a small group, there were so many other groups on track slowed the whole event down, there was little information from the guide, at the end we were left to get to pick up or shuttle bus areas. We were not advised that the shuttle was not included. Many others were not impressed that a ticket was required. Had we known what we were going to get for our guided tour we would have just walked independently and not have had to waste our day. You have a very special place here to showcase and sadly we were left not wanting to recommend this to anyone to do a guided tour. Big tick for views

Stay away!!! - No guide for Caminito del Ray showed up at the time set in the ticket (1200). Took ages to Get in contact with Customer support and they dismissed everything claiming the tour was at 1500 leaving a big Group pretty angry. No support to solve the situation. . Stay away. The company has a very bad reputation amongst guides. Buy tickets directly instead!
