Had a great day hike into Machu Picchu. The weather was rainy which actually made it a much better day for the hike. The views were a little obscured somewhat but the clouds move around pretty fast so there is always a good vantage point. The best part of the walk was when you get to the Sun Gate and see the view of the ruins in the distance. Along the way the Lamas get up close and personal with you. Be sure to take enough water with you and lunch or snacks, you will need them as you stop and enjoy the views!!…

May 19th, 2019, an unforgettable day when I got my feet on long dreamed Inca Trail. Our tour guide Andrew and his team provided our group of 4 a wonderful support, we are still grateful these days. We chose 2d1n trip since our group needed to consider conservatively because of our ages and strength. It's a challenging day, also the day that my dream came true, with no doubt it's the highlight of my adulthood life. We got up and left hotel about 5am, got to Ollantaytambo station about 6, got off the train at famous KM104 where our journey started, we had simple but nutritious breakfast prepared by alpaca expedition team, then we went on our journey. There are few old Inca ruins on the way, Andrew stopped us and had brief lectures or introductions, we were tested at the end about inca culture if you were caught not paying attention;) we reached Intipunku at 4:00pm, reached top of Machupicchu at 5:00pm, almost missed sunset. I am thinking to do it again sometime later for 4d3n trip.…

If you love hiking and exploring ancient cities, the Camino Inka-Inka Trail is a must trip. BOTTOM LINE: Whether you hire a guide and pack animals or hike this ancient trail that has been used for the past 1,000 years, there is so much to see here. At the end is the "pot-of-gold" in seeing the incredible Inca city of Machu Picchu. If you are in great shape and love back-country camping, this is a buck-list journey of a lifetime. MY RATING: 8/10…
