Favourite spots:
When the traveler on his first visit to Cusco raises his eyes and looks up at the clean and fluffy sky his doubts disappear: To days great adventure is to follow in the footsteps of the ancient dwellers of the Inca Empire. Why invest up to four days trekking on steep paths to reach the old citadel of Machu Picchu, if there is a railroad that can take you there in comfort in only six hours? Only the experience itself can supply the answer.
What's really great:
The physical exertion climbing up the trail, to slowly slide down mud covered knee-wrenching slopes, to go into the nights surrounded by the stars and to speak to the whistling cold wind in the highland, becomes, at the end of the road, the fair price paid for one of the most extraordinary experiences to be found anywhere in the world today.
