Awesome. Is how I can only describe the entire experience, exceeded every expectation I had. The best highlights definitely swimming in a glacier lake is at the top of the list. Looking up from the lakeside getting cooked by the sun but spectacular views of 4 glaciers converging into one melting down the side of the mountain left me speechless. Continuing up Salkantay to 4600m was the most difficult part of the trek, I've never experienced something that difficult so when the entire team made it to the top, there was a massive sense of achievement. It is difficult to sum my full experience, in summary both leaders Markos and Paulo were very knowledgable. Always making time for history lessons and pointing out areas of interest, thank you!
