Trip of a lifetime!!!


I did the 4 day/ 3 night Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu. It was was an unbelievable experience that was led by our tour guide Santiago Ballon, along with 2 cooks, and 1 horse man. The 4 of them took such good care of us along the trek. They prepped and cooked all the meals: great food that was made with love. They had our tents set up by the time we had reaches the camp grounds. On the last day of our trek it was very hard to say goodbye to the staff. They had become so close to us. But I will highly recommend this staff because they are very reliable. Thank you for an amazing Trip! =)
