If you don’t want to go on the trek unless you have an English-speaking guide, you must let us know in the Further Details section, otherwise if it is not available, we will still confirm the tour with a Spanish-speaking guide.

Tour Reviews
I did the 3-day Takesi tour this weekend and had the best time! Pascual the guide was very accommodating, helpful and lovely company for the whole trip and the trek is absolutely beautiful – I want to go back already!
Bellos paisajes durante la caminata! Se pueden rentar espacios en un pueblo intermedio y conseguir algunos alimentos. Vale la pena como aventura y trekking!
