Llama Pichu
The first day was difficult at altitude but got better over time. I loved the company and the guide – the zip line and hot springs were great excursions in the day. The hike was hard but worth it. I really wish I could do it again. Always be prepared as the Boy Scouts say.…

Amazing experience!
The overall experience of the trail was great! It was really nice that our group was very small (4 tourists). Although the weather was not great (lots of rain on the second and third day), the trek was very doable for us. The porters took really great care of us, they offered to help us…
