    Dear team, Thank you very much for amazing four days. I had a great time hiking the Inka Trail, even though it was hard at some points as the Dead Woman\’s Pass. The service including the porters, the food as well as the guides was truly outstanding and I did not miss anything during that…

    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,…

    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…

Machu Picchu and the Inca Trail are so beautiful but what made this experience even better was our tour guides Paul and Hilton. Paul\’s passion and humor made this experience even more valuable. Paul\’s…
