Der alptraum meines sommers

So hatte ich mir meinen Urlaub nicht vorgestellt! Erholung sollte es sein, eine schoene und gemuetliche Zeit wollte ich mir machen. Nix da. Meine Freundin Dagmar hat mir einen dicken Strich durch die Rechnung gemacht und uns auf dem Inka Trail eingebucht!
Es war eine harte Zeit. Ich habe gelitten. Schlafen im Zelt, Riesen-Rucksack schleppen, immer nur hinauf auf ... Continue Reading

Utmaningen

Att vandra i Peru, en upplevelse utan motsvarighet, ett minne utan like. Inkaleden som jag har lyckats att vandra tillsammans med en underbar grupp ledda av trygga och mycket erfarna guider. Har nu en kunskap om det gamla Inkariket men det finns mer kunskap att ta till sig.
En kultur med mycket mystik och naturen som prisas stort. Trappa ... Continue Reading

Del’s tired opinion

I signed up with Inca Trail Reservations based upon the recommendation of a friend's friend and I have not been disappointed in any aspect of the trek of the Inca Trail or the arrangements Mariella and Mabel made for the Galapagos Islands next week. But, I will focus on critiquing the past week.
Paul, our guide was marvelous. He ... Continue Reading

Inca-redible

This trip was absolutely incredible. Words can't describe how wonderful of a trip this was for me. The Inca Trail was definitely a challenge and was hard during some portions of the trail but it was worth every single step. The ruins along the way were very magical and breathtaking. I love the idea that they were very secluded and ... Continue Reading
