  • Salkantay 5d

    The trip was great. The hiking was a challenge, but not too hard. Mostly the speed was fast, but not too fast. The group stayed mostly together. And when it was necessary they stopped and waited for the others. But we have not to wait for a long time. Especially on the second day it…

  • Rewarding experience

    This is a challenging hike but has a variety of views and scenery. The rocky peaks and Mt. Salkantay are amazing – my poor little camera was less than adequate. Our guide and staff worked very hard to make it a successful trek for everyone. The wake up tea each morning was wonderful. I had…
