Machu Macho Man

Unbelievable pictures from the 4 day hike!! I would highly recommend doing this hike (if physically able) instead of only taking the train to see Machu Picchu because you gain such ... Continue Reading

A pesar das dificuldades, a recompensa é imensa. Paisagens que a vista não consegue ... Continue Reading

Unforgettable experience

The 4-day trekking with Inca Trail Reservations was won-der-ful!. The Chaskis (heroes!) and our two guides Manuel and Bernardo helped us discover the true beauty of the Peruvian Andes and the mysterious history of the Incan empire.

Conquering the mountain

This truly was an amazing trip! The second day seemed to last forever and at times I thought.

It is all topped off by visiting the greatest ruins in the world. It's ultimately a highlight reel of the greatest things Peru has to offer. Also food is amazing. Ronny and Raul are ...
