    May need new legs but worth it!!

    A great experience and nothing like anything i have done before. I enjoyed the fact we were a smaller group of 6 as we were all able to keep up a similar pace and not be held up by large group numbers, as well as get to know one another. Our guide; Marco, was encouraging…

    Salkantay

    The Salkantay trek was very fun. We had a good group and a good guide. The first day is the most challenging, with four hours of uphill, and an hour of downhill. The lunch and dinner were very hearty and tasty. The night was very cold and maybe another blanket would have helped. The second…

    Glamping in Peru

    This trek was by far the hardest trek I have ever done, but most rewarding. The first two days I thought I wouldn\’t make it but Raul and Jimmy (best tour guides ever) was always behind or in front making sure we made it to the finish. They made the trek enjoyable. My favorite part…

    Holy Altitude Batman

    I was unfortunate enough to get a sever case of altitude sickness in Cusco so I unfortunately had to miss most of the hike. The company was great at working with me to help me find other options, but naturally lost my money. They allowed me to add on another tour but it did cost…
