Must See On Isabela - Amazing to explore the lava fields of the 2028 eruption and learn more about the history of Isabela. Take sturdy, waterproof shoes and light layers to cover up against both sun and rain as the weather turns fast up on the lava fields. Incredible views and geology from the top. This was a ~15km hike, not an easy walking tour so take plenty of water and snacks. Nice small lunch is provided but you may want a little more, especially if like us you have slower walkers that result in longer out and about.

Good hike! - Great moderate hike. The hardest part was the muddy conditions at beginning of hike with a bit of cold. Tour guide was excellent. Communication regarding meetup point and time was poor--we were told to be there 45 minutes prior to pickup time.

Life-threatening ride with bad guide. Not recommended! - Not recommended: Large group (16 people). The journey to the 5-hour hike was made in an ancient truck on which the fastenings of the benches were loose. The driver drove so fast and lurching that the ride was like a roller coaster. It was life-threatening. All the participants complained to the driver, who was also the "guide". During the 5-hour hike, the "guide" only explained something about the volcanoes 2 times and only for 5 minutes each time. The lecture was listless, boring and superficial. The "guide" was mainly concerned that all participants finish the hike as quickly as possible. While other groups visited different viewpoints, the "guide" told us to move on because they were bad. On the 5-hour hike, there were therefore only 2 stops at viewpoints. After the return trip, the driver did not drop off participants at the hotels, but simply threw them out of the vehicle in the village. No participant was enthusiastic, all were disappointed.
