A close friend organized this special trip to Peru and Bolivia. She put together a group of 8 friends and booked this two week trip through Wilderness Travel customizing their normal itinerary. The trip was guided and well supported. We started in Lima, flew to Cusco where we explored and got acclimated to the altitude.
The highlight was the 3 day hike from Ollantaytambo to Machu Picchu. We hiked about 6 hours each day, tent camped (with the support of our guide staff), arriving at Machu Picchu via the Royal Inca Trail.
The final walk was tough but, as we entered through the Sun Gate for the view of Machu Picchu, was well worth it!
Don’t miss the hike to Huayna Picchu – another great view. Caught the helicopter back to Cusco – at least we didn’t have to walk! We combined Machu Pichu with a fascinating boat trip on Lake Titicaca and spent time exploring Bolivia and the area surrounding La Paz.
