The trek in all was unforgetable. I had a very fun time seeing the ruins, although the physical level of fitness needed for this trek is quite high.

I ended up getting very bad altitude sickness on the second day up the large 2 hour mountain. Maybe suggesting to travelers some altitude tablets they may want to take with them. The ones I had did not go over well and many other trekers told me how bad they were. Also to bring wet wipes they are amazing for the toliets and bird baths, more emphasis on this would be good.

Our guides English was not the best but she did do a lot of cultural activities that I found other tours did not get to do. I really appreciated this and I think this made the trek even more memorable.

Overall I was surprised at just how hard this trek was and this may need to be illustrated more to future trekers.
