Finally its over

I had a great time. Day two was the hardest. Maybe some more bonding like playing cards would have been good. Lizandro was really funny and helpful. The walking gets easier after a bit and the food really is fantastic. The early mornings were fine because we got to bed quite early and had a very relaxing time.

Canarias Treckers

The Inca Trail was amazing. The four days flew by... even with waking up so early every morning. The sights are breathtaking. Also, one of the best parts has to be the food. The things that the chef can cook in the middle of a trail are mind blowing.
The past four days have been so great and I ... Continue Reading

Es war an einem Ostermontag

Wir starteten am Morgen mit dem Bus ins Urbanatal, wo es pūnktlich mit dem Panoramazug zu km 104 ging. Der Ausstieg war schon grandios und versprach viel fūr ... Continue Reading

Just do it

It was a great experience. The beginning of the tour i.e. to get to km 104 with the Vistadome train really early in the morning was fantastic. I really liked the train as such with those panorama windows and excellent service. The walk was tiring but really worthwhile, with all those gorgeous views and places.
At the end the ... Continue Reading

Traveling with the Adams family

Getting up at 5:00 am (which usually is way too early for me) was totally worth it for this trip. Overall the trip was definitely memorable for me and my family (The Adams family). Some of my personal highlights today were the small waterfalls, the special flowers and the beautiful butterflies we saw during our hike. But also the amazing ... Continue Reading

I cannot find a funny title

Well, even if the trip started really early in the morning, it turned out to be worth it. The briefing the night before the trip helped us to prepare for the trip and we got an idea of what we have to expect from the next two days.
The bus and train ride were well organized and the service ... Continue Reading
