Don't miss out on going.

Beautiful outing, the guide and the driver were excellent. The food and the restaurant were of very good quality. Just for improvement, the water temperature of the pools at Lodge El Morado.

All very good, but the spa is not worth it, the price does not match what offer

It was a very nice ride with the driver Claudio and the guide Alejandro, the part of the snow is quite cool and the place is wonderful, the food is also wonderful, but the spa is not worth it, the water is not hot, it is warm, and they force you to buy a swim stick at the site, and they do not accept money! The massage worker wasn't there either and they didn't have anyone to replace

Great service, but be more aware that foreigners might be late because they don't know the area.
