    We loved the activity! The experience was already incredibly comprehensive and incredible, but it was even better for us thanks to the company of Bella (our guide). We saw the best sunrise of our lives overlooking the volcano, rode an ATV, climbed to the crater of the active volcano, had breakfast with beautiful views, and finally, they took us (partly on a motorcycle ride and partly on foot) to the waterfall, which was breathtaking! We highly recommend it, especially if all the guides are like Bella.
