Great day - We had a great day and Daniel was a wonderful guide - the view from the top was stunning but we really enjoyed walking through the forest and hearing all about the local customs

Great Day Out! - We did the La India Dormida hike in El Valle de Antón yesterday and had an unforgettable experience, largely thanks to our incredible guide, David. From the very start, David was warm, knowledgeable, and made sure we felt comfortable and excited for the journey ahead. The hike itself isn’t too difficult, but good footwear with grip is definitely a must, as some sections are quite steep, especially near the beginning. Luckily, it started raining only toward the end, by then, we’d already passed the trickiest parts. One of the highlights was seeing the famous petroglyphs on the painted rocks. David shared that their meaning is still a mystery, some say it could be a map, others think it might be a harvest calendar. He really brought the history and legends of the area to life. Along the way, he pointed out the best photo spots, and the views from the top were absolutely breathtaking. The whole hike took about two hours, with plenty of time to pause, take in the scenery, and snap photos. He brought us to a lovely spot for lunch after the hike. But the day didn’t end there. David also took us to the local zoo and market, where he continued to share interesting facts and stories. Honestly, David is one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. He was attentive, fun, and made the whole day feel really special. If you’re planning to do this hike, I can’t recommend David enough. We had such a great time, and it’s a day we’ll remember for a long time.
