“We got lucky to get Oddi as a guide. 100% hands down the best guide we’ve had on an excursion. Outrageously knowledgeable and courteous of all the people on the excursion. He does this hike all the time so he knows EXACTLY where is safe and where isn’t to walk when you’re on the volcano surface. Very unique and awesome experience doing this tour. Just be warned the hike up does take effort and time so prepare yourself with snacks, water and proper weather gear just in case Mother Nature turns sour. Does get extremely windy as you get higher on your hike be cautious of that. Would HIGHLY recommend…”

The ride was smooth and we may book again for another adventure this trip. Feel free to check the videos on IG: @JYoffe”
