First day was quite tough due to altitude sickness. We had only just arrived in Peru from Argentina so was not used to the altitude. We had to stop every few minutes to catch our breathes which means we were quite slow compared to the majority of the group. We should have prepared a lot more or at least acclimatized before hiking Salkantay . When we reached Salkantay it was all worth it . The view was amazing.
The chef did a great job , the food was amazing, especially the guacamole on day one.
The porters did a great job as well, it would have been a tough trek with those bags.
Review of : Salkantay 5 days / 4 nights
