Great - Excellent experience Mustafa is a great guide explaining many things during the walk. Adapting his rhythm to the group or the person if so needed. Talking and yet being discret if needed.

Highly recommended easy walk with stunning views - Everything was perfect. The company was super helpful and adjusted the start time specially to suit us. Our guide Mustafa was a really interesting person to talk to and gave us information about the features of our walk - plants, buildings, views. The train journey up to the area is scenic, and the walk itself is easy. We had lovely weather and there were locals roller-skiing and hiking everywhere - we felt like we were doing what local people would do on a Sunday morning.
