Ciudad Perdida "Teyuna" 4 Days Tracking Tour

Incredible experience. Excelent tour guides.

I took this tour about a year ago. I decided to celebrate my 71 birthday up in that mountain. The experience was awsome. Ruth, mainly, the guide who help me and was with me all the time was incredible. This lady did all that he could for anyone in that group. I do not remeber how many people in my group but I remember that most were very young, I was always the last person getting to whereever was the objective on that day, and also the most celebrated. The rest of the kids in the group always showed happiness when I reached our goal for the day.I have nothing but GOOD things to say about this experience. I also give thanks to all the guides and the person, whose name I don't remember that help me carring my bag. The tour is excelent and very reasonable for all you get.Accomodations were great and it was a miracle to find a beer for less than $3 in 3,000 feet above sea level ! Thank you and sorry for I never took the time to write the review before.
