Everything was OK. The tours that were arranged that had an English speaking guide were great, but most of the time I didn't have a guide as was promised in the package which made it a little lonely and frustrating that I didn't know what was going on a lot and I could not ask questions.

Ended up having to switch to Cayambe. Henry was super helpful with all of our questions, getting us from place to place and last minute changes. Herman was our trek leader and was great! You can tell he’s been leading for years , knowledgeable and passionate about what he does. Some of the info up front was vague and not as descriptive as we’d like when you are planing for a such an adventure, so be sure to ask questions if you have them and they will quickly answer!
