    Heel mooie, maar ook erg zware reis. mn onderschat wat het effect van de hoogte op mijzelf was. En toch onvoldoende zicht op de mate van steilheid en dus op de zwaarte daarin op de reis/tocht.

    THE LOST CITY OF CHOQUEQUIRAO

    Very enjoyable and well lead trip through some of Peru's less busy trekking trails. Some fairly tough climbs and descents but well worth it to find the tranquility of the Lost City of Choquequirao and explore Peru's beautiful and varied scenery. Was also good to be able to visit Machu Picchu on the last day - a great way to finish the trek!

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    3 key mommnets stand out; - climing the hill from the camp site and entering the Lost City of C. Stunning. - the point where Machu Picchu first comes into view in the distance - the indiviudals in the group each reaching the top of the Choquequirao Pass - a great sense of achievement!

    What did you think of your group leader?

    Very good. Really knew his stuff in terms of the history of the Incas and was a very approachable. Also had a very good sense of humour and interacted very well with the group.

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    Bring lots of insect repellant!!

    Is there anything else you would like to add?

    Great trip, loved every minute of it. Thinking about my next one already!

    THE LOST CITY OF CHOQUEQUIRAO

    It was a real adventure. The views were spectacular and the support from our guides, muleteers and cooks was excellent. The hotel accomodation in Cusco was poor and the accomodation the evening after Silver Springs was poor and the food was cold. Exodus need to review these hotels and provide alternatives.   

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    Macchu Picchu was spectacular and Choquequira full of mystery

    What did you think of your group leader?

    Absolutely first class. The best guide we have ever had 

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    Take lots of insect repellant and be prepared for any kind of weather.

    lost cities of choquequirao

    A must do trip. for most of the 8days on the choquequirao trail we hardly saw other walkers, and when we did it was in passing. and at choquequirao there was one other group, and we pretty much had the site to our self. the trails were tough at times, but the rewards of stunning views and totally amazing sites . and every time you turn a corner, they appeared to get better.

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    their are many but having lunch on the terraces at pinchaunuyoc absolutely stunning , lunch and seeing condors at parador abra san juan. valentine and achillies prepared the most amazing food. every day something different macho picchu

    What did you think of your group leader?

    Rolando saico excellent new his country and the history of the sites has a real passion for his country . this really came across then speaking with him. nothing was to much trouble. made the difference of this being not a good holiday but a brilliant holiday.

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    if your thinking about this trip do it now . I thin with new infrastructure going on this trail is going to get a whole lot busier. insect repellent don't forget it. their not about most of the time, but make up for it when they are.

    Is there anything else you would like to add?

    peru is a beautiful country full of culture. with great people . that respect your space and don't try to push you into buying things you don't want . this is a country to put on your bucket list.

    Chocoquiero

    This was a wonderful holiday. We went as a family including 2 teenagers and we all had a fantastic time.

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    Arriving at a beautiful lunch spot in an Inca site, with tables set up on the terraces on the mountain side, and water channels cascading down, built by the incas. The first view of Macchu Picchu glimpsed from across the valley.

    What did you think of your group leader?

    Rolando was amazing. Inspirational, fantastic attention to detail, devoted to his culture, friendly and resourceful.

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    Make sure your sleeping bag is warm, have a down or synthetic jacket as it gets very cold - below freezing - in the evenings and at night at altitude. My daughter used a metal water bottle with an insulating cover as a sleeping bag. It's warm during the day though.

    Is there anything else you would like to add?

    The food on this trip is worth a special mention. It was absolutely delicious, vegetarians were well catered for and the food hygiene was meticulous. It included a large breakfast, 2 course cooked lunch, afternoon tea and 3 course evening meal, as well as snacks. Boiled water was provided for our water bottles.

    Choquequirao to Macau Picchu

    Top notch trip visiting two stunning Inca sites. One well publicised with 2500 visitors per day, while the other might only see 25! But you need to do some hard walking to reach that one........

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    Two really. Looking down from the 'bowling green smooth' viewpoint over Choq, in all its solitude. On this my second visit to MP, finally getting the classic view overlooking the city in all its glory.

    What did you think of your group leader?

    Frank was very good at his job. Informative about all aspects of the Inca culture. Showed a love both for Peru and for the mountain people of the Andes. Crucially he also had a good sense of humour!!

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    Be prepared for testing walking conditions. My walk was in November but we experienced very hot sunshine. This made the steep zig zagging ascents and descents very hard. Walking poles extremely useful.

    Is there anything else you would like to add?

    Peru is one of my top destinations. Widely different parts to the country with so many Inca (and older) sites in good preservation.

    Prachtige reis, bovenverwachting grote uitdaging om alleen lopend op de plekken te komen, die ik graag wilde zien. Fysiek en mentale overwinning. Niks geen massatoerisme, prachtige flora en fauna, geweldige enthousiaste gids, die echt veel wist te vertellen, en gestroomlijnde georganiseerd personeel wat er elke dag weer spik en span voor zorgde, dat camp weer op tijd afgebroken en opgebouwd was, goed eten en prachtig uitzicht in het hoge Andesgebergte.

    The Lost City of Choquequirao

    One of the best trips I have done. The food was the better than on any previos trek.

    What was the most inspirational moment of your trip?

    The earthquake resistant Inca stoework.

    What did you think of your group leader?

    Very experienced and professional

    Do you have any advice for potential travellers?

    The walking is steep with extended periods of height gain and loss. Make sure you have done some training. A pair of poles help the knees considerably. The Lake Titicca (spelling?) extension is worth doing.

    Is there anything else you would like to add?

    I would have liked more information about the extension. Just knowing what hotel I was staying in and a name and telephone number for the person meeting me would have helped. In the event everything went like clockwork, but I experienced some anxiety about what I would do if the rep. hadn't turned up. I had no plan B.
