Javi is a great guide. Despite the harsh weather conditions he made the Sierra de Gaudarrama experience memorable. He’s very patient and ensure that you’re comfortable throughout. The van utilised for the trip is kept immaculate and super clean. I recommend this trip to anyone that would like to visit the Sierra de Guadarrama national park.

I would recommend this experience to anyone who’s willing to explore outside the city center and take a retreat in nature. The mountains, rock formations, flora and fauna will amaze you. So much to take in, will definitely come back to explore more of this natural landscape in the near future.

Javi is an excellent guide. He responded to our interests and spent time how we decided. He gave us stunning views of the quaint towns, mountain peaks, rushing rivers, valleys, lakes, and rock formations. We walked at a pace that was comfortable for us and although a few parts were challenging, the experience was very peaceful and relaxing. We shared laughs with Javi along the way and he made our excursion very memorable.
