In the morning, we explored the ruins with our guide and then began our hike to Lamay, which was approximately 3 miles. We descended on a trail through the Sacred Valley and spotted other smaller ruins off in the distance.
At the end of the trail, our kitchen tent was set up for and lunch was just about ready. Again we had an exquisite meal prepared for us. Then we said our goodbye's to our cook, horses that carried our equipment, and Don Francisco.
Our driver then took us through the city of Ollantaytambo, where we visited more Inca ruins. After this quick stop, we continued on to the train station to head for Machu Picchu.
We got great seats facing the back window. It was like our own personal movie landscape. The train followed the Urubamba River towards the Amazon and then to the sacred city of Machu Picchu. It was a gorgeous ride, as we descended from the Andean highlands to the Amazon rainforest.
Once we arrived, we checked in to our hotel and then had free time to explore the city and eat some local food. We had a great meal this night at Inca Wasi. After dinner, we walked down the alleys and found a nice little bar to enjoy another Pisco Sour before heading back to our hotel for the night.
Kevin got right on our request and had us booked within the week

The info on the website was laid out very well. I did some comparisons with other tours and found Adventure Life met a lot of what I wanted in an Antarctica trip at the cheapest price. Requested a quote on Claudia contacted me right away. She answered a lot of questions the I had via email even though she offered to discuss via phone call. I’m more of an email person so appreciated how she accommodated that and answered all my questions. And when I was ready to book, she quickly got the ball rolling with getting our spots reserved on the trip my friend and I wanted. Thanks again, Claudia!

(1) great information on the website and throughout all the "materials." (2) Jane Packer is great: knowledgeable, responsive, takes a personal interest and tone, seems to care about the customer as a person not a sale.

For our first trip to Costa Rica, Adventure Life designed a tour that meets the interests, ecological and adventure, of our party; but also takes into account our physical limitations sine we are all septuagenarian. We are looking forward to the trip.
