Eye of the tiger
I came here with the intention to visit Machu Picchu the tough way. The intention was to enjoy the journey as much as the destination. It was tough, long and tiring. But I didn\’t quit. I finished and arrived through strong will. Inca Trail Reservations provided me this opportunity. I feel satisfied. Thank you for…

Parece agua pero es pisco
Mis amigos Carlos, Jean Carlo y Marco fueron excelentes en todo momento. Muy atentos, amenos y super responsables. De seguro que esta ha sido de las mejores experiencias acampando y caminando que haya tenido. Si regreso al Perú, sin duda que lo haré un poco más liviano y de nuevo con los grandes guÃas que…

Hardcore adventure
So, apparently 30 kilos bag isn\’t the best for this hardcore adventure. The second day is absolutely gruesome especially if you are not used to the altitude !

Don’t stop till you get enough
Found this website online and after researching for a couple days I decided with this one. I\’m really glad I did as well. Day 1 was pretty simple and a good warm up however day 2 was a tough 10 hour 21 km hike up the Salkantay mountain and back down again. Weather went from…

Trek yourself before you wreck yourself
After much searching online for a trek I came across the Salkantay trek and read the reviews and I was hooked. The prices were good (not too high or too low) and the responses from their secretary was very prompt and informative. We had the briefing the night before the trek to make sure all…

Trek highlights
We spent five days on the Salkantay tour. We started day one with flowers and greenery. After a short trek we reached base camp and had tents ready and a meal already prepared for us. We left our bags and trekked up a steep hill to find a stunning lake below a snowy mountain. This…
