Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu

The Trek was spectacular, the Salkantay Pass was stunning and really worth the effort to get up there! An absolute highlight.

Each day we saw quite different scenery with our fabulous guide , Carlos took the time to explain. He described the many different animals and various plants, fruits and flowers. He also told us many stories about the Incas way of life along this traditional trail which was really interesting.

The food was good with all the dietary requirements being met. Coca leaves were readily available to help with the altitude and we often were served hearty Peruvian traditional dishes.
