The view was magnificent (why we booked the tour in the first place) and the guide was helpful. Needed fitness level: Took rouhgly 2h. At times it was a little steep so wearing shoes with some grip is helpful. If you do sports from time to time however if shouldn't be an issue at all. The guide also made time for breaks.”
