These girls are a fire! Was such a pleasure to meet and was extremely sad to say goodbye
Really hard working and at the same time a great company to spend time immersing in cultural activities, such as an early morning with Guayusa.
Always welcome back and strong recommendation for other hosts!

They will help you before you think about it! :)
They are very active girls and willing to help with anything you need at any time. We loved their excitement about doing the activities for the guests because they make it so much fun.
