Worth it

DAVID_D, Jan 2026

If you are hesitant because of the duration... it's worth. The journey is the experience and not the destination. If you are afraid of heights, as I am, dont worry about it. With someone else driving you get to experience the beauty of the valley below. These aren't European or USA mountains with terrifying cliff edges. Our guide Santiago was great. It was a great day overall.

Superb!
