It was a worthwhile excursion - very good value for the price & it was very interesting to see the quarry & to do the canyon walk. Disappointed though that we did not see any cutting or carving actually happening when we were there. I think it should also be highlighted that GOOD MOBILITY is needed for the walk. There are some big steps & rocks to navigate, and a steep ramp at the end to exit the walk.
Sillar route good and bad

Mixup in pickup location. They sent wrong address and communication did not resolve. Eventually we got to correct spot. Van was a stifling oven. Still interesting especially the walk through slot canyon

The place was nice but I feel the tour guide was a bit in a rush. Also, I asked for English tour and they had to arrange someone else last minute. Make sure to contact them before your tour. Other tours, the agency contacted me.

Took the afternoon session. Went to the stated pickup place which was a closed tour office. 15 mins before the start time received WhatsApp from the tour provider asked to meet at another place. Then received another unknown person WhatsApp message to meet at a different place. WhatsApp the tour provider what’s happening, didn’t reply in time. Met with the unknown person who had our names on her list. She stated that we were changed to another tour provider. Despite of the pick up confusion, nice walk in Culebrillas, reminded me of Antelopes in USA.
Good value for money
