Amazing experience with Luis (the pilot) who followed us from days before... everything was well organized and done safely... we gave it as a gift which, I must say, was much appreciated!

Super experience! Didn't want to miss this! On the site you could only book for 2 people at a time. We called them to ask to book for 3 people. That was no problem. Friendly people! You could take the photos and videos they made as an option. They were immediately put on your mobile on the bus back to the location.
