Our long-anticipated exploration of pre-European Andean culture was more informative and enjoyable than ever we could have imagined. Two very knowledgeable and agreeable guides made it so. Breathtaking scenery was the norm. The highlight and great surprise of the trip was the Colca Canyon. The sheer effort involved in cultivating such seemingly inhospitable land is awe inspiring.

Our idea for this trip started with seeing Machu Picchu, but soon, trekking the Inca Trail became integrally important to the purpose of the trip. Dave & I are in our late 50’s. We hike, just not real fast. We were extremely pleased at how personalized the entire trip was, especially the trek. We're also not much group tour people, but were expecting crowds at such a great attraction. …

This year I heard that Machu Picchu was celebrating its 100th year anniversary of its re-discovery and I told myself that it will be the best time to visit. Since it is a long way anyway, I have to visit other South American countries since I don't know whether I will ever visit this region again. When the consultant at Adventure Life …
