Customer Reviews
Irvi was our guide and he was the best. He made sure all of us had a great experience and explained everything. If we had questions he answered immediately and made us feel safe up there. The view is amazing and the hike is manageable. Not easy but you can do it!!!
The only tour operator I have experienced who doesn’t cancel the tours even if there are just few participants or one! Fantastic service and a very professional driver. Thank you for the experience, will be booking again soon (and booked another one just today) ☺️
The Bovilla Lake Tour provided great views. The whole trip was well organised and great value for money. The tour guide Beni was thoughtful, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing insights about the area. Highly recommend this tour!
