This was an incredible... - This was an incredible experience! The hike is challenging, but totally doable, you just have to take your time - our guide was extremely patient with us, and allowed each person in the group to move at their own pace. She even walked my wife down to the basecamp when she was not feeling well, and then made her way back up to meet us as we were making our descent. Totally worth the trip!

The best experience!! - Absolutely wonderful experience. Teo was the most kind and most informative. We learned a lot about Peru and the mountains. He is also very patient and helped us conquer the mountain at our own pace. He is also a great photographer! Thank you so much for this amazing experience Teo 😊

The best experiencia of my life - The best part was the view in the top of the mountain, the travelers should have a good condition to walk the last 500 meters. My guide was Lució Villegas, he works in ‘Viajes Pacífico and Megatravel).
