What doesn’t kill you only makes you stronger
Expect half your party to get sick or hurt. Don\’t overestimate your capabilities and be prepared for the altitude the best you can. I used to live at higher altitude so I thought I didn\’t need to pack meds. I got so sick I couldn\’t even see straight. Thankfully my group mates took care of…

Amigos trek
Salkantay trek has amazing scenery!. The food cooked by chefs was delicious. Make sure to have lots of coco leaves and tea to keep altitude sickness at bay! . Second day was the hardest but the most rewarding. The trick is to go slow and at your own pace. The walk up to the glacier…

Move your lazy legs!!!
Every tour company is walking the same trail – it\’s the guides that really make the difference from one company to the next. Paul, Jorge and Lisette were not only knowledgeable about the trail and its history, but also hilarious and thoroughly amusing the entire time. Even when we were beyond tired and cranky, they…
