Edy went above and beyond on this experience! Everything was so seemless and it was so nice not to have to think when to take trains buses. Everything was mapped out perfectly and no stress. Incredible amount of knowledge and I learned a ton throughout the the 2 day adventure about the rich history of the Inkas. I cannot recommend the tour any more if the guide is through edy! Really appreciate the memorable experience and will never forget it

We were the only two people on this tour and felt quite indulged! We were picked up at our hotel by Sadam, driven to the park (3 hours), fed a delicious, abundant breakfast by Edison and then guided up the mountain by Mauro. Every detail was well worked out including optional oxygen and tracking pole rentals. Mauro shared his knowledge of the development of this new park and the impact on the local community along with local customs, dress and the geological history of the area.
The hike is a 2,300ft elevation gain to 16,500ft in just 2 km (4 km round trip); not for the faint of heart. But the view from the top is well worth it! We were taking diamox and it was still hard to breath at that altitude. Lots of people were taking horse rides up.
Edison had a delicious lunch ready for us when we got back (fantastic veggie dished upon request) and were were returned to our hotel by about 4pm. It was a great day!

Our guide Cesar was great throughout the trek. He was so knowledgable about the surrounding environment, telling us the history of the Andean culture and Incas at stops along the way. The Chefs cooked some amazing food, which was perfect after each daily trek. Our campsite was away from the others so it made our trek more private. I loved the contrasting environments you'll go through, from snow high altitudes, to the warmer jungle. Really recommend SAM Travel. Great team.
