Epic time in Peru!
We joined this tour during the Peru trip and it’s totally worth it! The place is beautiful and the guides are super nice and considerate. The 4 day hikes is not too much of a challenge since they organize it pretty well. We did a hike to Machu Picchu and this one in Santa Cruz is even more beautiful than that one. Highly recommended!!

One of the best mountain treks you can do!
Definitely one of my highlights on trekking so far. The views during the dry season are amazing. Such a beautiful area. We did it alone, which totally doable. Plenty of people on the trek and hard to get lost. Definitely a must do.
