Summary:
It was an outstanding experience. The guide Bruno was very friendly, nice and very informative. It was all in English and you could understand her very well. At the places where he led us were very nice from the natural pool to special granite rocks to the viewpoint Vedetta Paladimonti at 615 m altitude. Where you had a fantastic panoramic view. Last Bruno showed us some cactus fruits, cut them up and you could try them. Very good. It was all a lasting experience together. Danke Bruno 🫶🫶🫶
