An incredible experience - The hiking experience was incredible. Sebastian is a wonderful person with a very lively energy that makes you feel as if the walk is shorter than it actually is. He demonstrates all his wisdom and experience from so many years of traveling these places, and always makes sure that you are feeling good and that you have what you need. I would definitely do the tour again!

Great Day Out with Guide Sebastian - I recently went on a 6 hour mountain hike with Sebastian as our guide, and it was a really good experience. The path we took wasn't too easy, but Sebastian knew his way around and kept us on track. He was careful to make sure everyone was doing okay, especially on the tougher parts of the hike. What I appreciated most was the information Sebastian shared about the local nature and wildlife. It's clear he knows a lot about the area, and I learned quite a bit from him. He's got a real skill for guiding, but what made the day better was just how down-to-earth and approachable he is. If you're looking for a solid guide who knows the area well and can provide a bunch of interesting facts along the way, Sebastian's a great choice. He made our trip enjoyable and informative without overdoing it. Definitely made the hike worth it!
