The Salkantay Trek was an amazing experience. We began our trek at 3000m above sea level and made our way up to 4500m above sea level.
That was a challenging part of the hike, but our tour guide, Marco, provided a lot of assistance on ascent. Once we reached the 4500m altitude level, we made our way down and experienced the jungle regions of the Andes. Finally, we made it to Machu Picchu.
The overall experience broadened our perspective of Peru and its culture. Our tour guide, Marco, is an excellent tour guide!!! I recommend Marco for future trekkers who wish to do the Salkantay Trek.
I want to thank him and Francisco for carrying me up the mountain; Marco held my arms while Francisco gripped my ankles. Such strength!
