Machu Picchu Travels

Teresa and John in Quito
By : Teresa Van Haalen
Trip Begins: Jan 31, 2013
Trip Ends: Feb 6, 2013
We decided to contact Adventure Life for a tour of Machu Picchu at the suggestion of some good friends. This fabulous tour was our only ''guided'' tour in a 5 week, 4 country adventure through South America. This decision was perfect because we ended up learning so much more about the ruins, the culture and the country, than if we had walked in the front gates on our own. Read on. . .
