He took photos on the trip and plans to share them with participants. He keeps his groups limited to 8 and we only had 4, so we had a great hiking group. The gorge and surrounds were lovely. The hike requires some uphill challenge, suspended bridges, holding on rock to stay on the trail, crouching, and even sit and scoot. It felt like an adventure,…”

However, excellent idea to meet at the exit where there is a great hotel & rest rooms and then drive to the entry and start the tour. I had planned to take the tour w/o any guide but glad that I had booked it.”

We explored Montserrat early in the morning, and the sunrise was stunning, with very few people around. We attended the early mass and had the opportunity to explore the church. Our guide, Albert, motivated us to complete the hike, and I'm so glad I did. The other side of the mountain offers a different perspective and amazing sights to see. Albert was very attentive and prepared wine, snacks, and water for us, which I also enjoyed.Read more”
