I had the best time. It was so well organised, had a great dynamic, and was really fun.Huachachina desert was a great way to start the trip. Full of activity.
Peru & Galapagos Adventure, Sept 2017 We added city tour in Lima before flying to Cusco. In Cusco we met our guide who cared about us for 6 days. Ancient ruins, snowy mountain peaks, local women in traditional clothes and tall hats - everything was amazing. All hotels bear local flavor. The food has been excellent, the sights amazing, the people lovely. One recommendation: learn at least some Spanish - it would be very helpful.
Once in a lifetime experience! The briefing was very informative and they went out of their way to pick me up from my accommodation. The food on the trek was mind blowing. The chef, Sebastian, made sure we all had a culinary experience, incorporating a wide range of Peruvian cuisine. I ate better on my trek than my entire time in Cusco. This experience definitely wouldn’t have been possible without our porters. Caramelo was our head porter and made sure everything ran efficiently. They did much more than carry our bags, supplying us with whatever needed and cheering us on every time we left camp. They provided an energy and spirit on the trek that made us all feel like family. Most of all, the person that made this experience the most memorable was our guide, Lizandro. From the very beginning he was very personable and extremely knowledgeable. He left us feeling like what we participated in was much more than a trek but also partaking and walking in the footsteps of history. He provided much insight not only into Incan history but also it’s ties into modern day Peruvian life. His enthusiasm and sense of humor made him a joy to be around and I will miss him being a part of my day. I will definitely be booking more treks with him in the future! Everyone on his team made us feel very appreciated and explained how impactful and supportive our tourism was to them. When you book a tour with them you are doing much more than an expedition. You are supporting local livelihoods and gaining a family. They truly cultivated an experience that I will never forget.
