Richard, my guide en ChalalanCaminé más en Isla del Sol. Es como otro mondo. Vi más mujeres caminando con sus animals y cosas que parecían muy pesadas en sus espaldas. Vi una mujer que golpió a su chancho con un palo porque él quiso descansar, pero sus burros continuaron de caminar.
Bajamos una ruta muy inclinada, hasta el bote para cruzar Lago Titicaca y regresar a La Paz. Vi más cosas interestantes, como colinas pequeñas de heno para secar frijoles favas y papas secando en el sol. Cuando estaba en el coche, vimos una fiesta en la calle de muchas personas bailando. Ellos vistieron ropa muy interesante en colores brillantes con muchos detalles. Habían hombres que tocaron instrumentos musicales.
TRANSLATION: Walked around Isla del Sol in the morning. It’s like another world. I imagine few places have indoor plumbing or electricity. I saw many women walking with their animals, carrying things, like sticks, on their backs. One woman was with several donkeys and a pig that wanted to rest but the donkeys kept on going. She yelled at and whacked the pig with a stick to get it to move.
We descended to get to the boat to cross Lake Titicaca in order to return to La Paz. I saw fava beans drying under little hills of hay & potatoes drying in the sun. On the ride back to La Paz there was a party in the street of people dancing in magnificent, bright colored clothing. Men played musical instruments to accompany the dancers.
Our six-day tour in Iceland went smoothly with one exception. We had asked for two rooms each night. Somehow we were booked with one room with three beds. It could not be fixed at the first hotel in Reykjavik because the hotel was fully booked. Once informed of the problem, however, Adventure Life rebooked for two rooms for the remainder of the trip. As an 85-year-old traveler, I appreciated that one could participate at different physical levels at many of the stops. Iceland is a great place to visit but on the expensive side.

Jess was very easy going and answered all our questions. It’s not easy dealing with 6 people at once but she did an outstanding job!

Kassandra and the Adventure Life team have been incredible! Kassandra was very knowledgeable and attentive to our asks while making sure we kept within our budget. This was our first experience with a travel agent and we were blown away by the booking/initial exploration service. We will use Adventure Life again.

We had an absolutely wonderful Seychelles cruise experience. I can’t imagine having seen all the beautiful islands we saw any other way. The entire Variety cruise staff was so friendly, attentive and professional. And all the meals were amazing. I highly recommend this cruise.
