The hike was the hardest I have ever done but the scenery and experience was much worth it. 8 miles of constant hiking up and down the mountains was challenging and the last hour back was the hardest. It took us 7 hours round trip and my legs were feeling it.

It is well worth to visit the boiling lake. However, this trekking is tough and I suggest people to have some exercise (if you do not do exercise) prior to joining the tour. The guide John was very friendly and made explanation of nature.

The Boiling Lake challenge was SPECTACULAR! A highlight of our trip. Our guide was Anton, and he was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly: we learned a lot about Dominica and its local plants, wildlife, geography, culture and foods along the hike. We hope he writes a book. He was great company and one of the best guide experiences we have ever had. The hike itself is challenging but rewarding. The views are incredibly beautiful and varied to the point of sensory overload. We highly recommend the Boiling Lake challenge to any hiker who is interested! Thank you!

I was so glad to have met the challenge of hiking 6.5 hours to the Boiling Lake and swimming in Titou Gorge. Kudos to Hubert Winston the tour organizer, who prepared me mentally and got me back on my cruise ship in time! Also big thanks to Pablo our guide, who made sure we slowed down enough to enjoy the breathtaking mountain and rainforest scenery (and natural hot tub), and was a responsible protector of the safety of the other hikers. You should be fit and have good footwear - I had rugged Keens but low light hikers are likely best with long socks. At 63, I was happy to be able to keep up with a young couple several decades younger (thanks Peloton!). There are several ascents and descents with a beautifaul panorama mountaintop stop. Some of terrain was tricky with hand-and-foot scrambles and handy-branch grabs. The Valley of Desolation has to be seen to be believed, reminiscent of Milton's phrase, "...a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven." The Boiling Lake is a grand finale vista for all the hard work - then back thru the hell/heaven of the VoD (watch out for those hot stream crossings and steam vents!). The natural hot tub with hot waterfall was a wonderful respite and felt like being in Eden (gracias Pablo for taking us there). Finished up with a cool swim thru Titou Gorge and its own pummeling waterfall. Mission complete, body was beat, but Challenge achieved! Back on the ship, I booked massages - and all was good.

Absolutely stunning and a must if you are in beautiful Dominica. Antoine, our guide, was great and this kind of experience is definitely only to be done with a local guide, don´t go on your own!
