The hike was incredible, the views were amazing and our guide Edi was great. He gave us some information on the history of the area and was really helpful on the hike with navigating trickier parts of climbing up parts of the rock. He also helped everyone take photos of the view.

Hike to the Bovilla platform is exciting but a little bit a short walk.
The Bovilla Restaurant has good food and a nice interior so relaxing view.

The tour guide was very polite and communicative to pickup from my hostel.
His English was okay to answer some questions but not the strongest, but drove us to all the locations smoothly and got to see it all, for the price you can’t really complain. The hike wasn’t too bad but during the heat can be a bit challenging but there is shade and a restaurant near the top of the mountain.

Such a beautiful experience. Wonderful and educated guide provided a memorable experience. Make sure to bring water and wear comfy hiking shoes. If you are afraid of heights, going up the cliff may not be for you. Otherwise you can hike to the restaurant for a relaxing time.

Ledjo was a great guide. He was encouraging to all of the group members. The hike was a little challenging but certainly doable. The scenery was beyond breathtaking. I highly recommend this excursion.
