We are a large group of several families, yet Claudia kept us informed and on deadline so that we could receive a discount. She was consistently pleasant and efficient. Would happily work with her again.

What a gift to experience Bolivia's Cordillera Real in such a guided and supported way. From the buzz of La Paz to the staggering heights of Huayna Potosi, we were well taken care of. With our guide, we had access to remote and untouristed trails, and for most of the trek, it felt like we had the world to ourselves. Would definitely recommend this to big mountain lovers who are prepared for some serious altitude and startling beauty.
