It has been over 12 years since “How much burden the Inka Trail could support” a survey-investigation thesis was submitted to the San Antonio Abad National University of Cusco by Edgar to get his Degree in Tourism Business.
This can tell us how Edgar was deeply concerned about environment and the tourism impact to his homeland from the very first beginning.
Over these 12 years plus the 5-year University attendance, Edgar and his wife Magdalena also known as Maria -who holds the same Degree and also have worked for several well-reputed travel companies in Cusco, have been successful working leading groups.
Being a top performer and with at least 300 Inca Trail and other trips hiked and accounted to his personal resume, Edgar –better known as Kumaru (Syllables of the three Andean totems: Kuntur -Condor, Puma and Amaru -Snake), rapidly won prizes and was invited to lead groups not only within his own home country but in several others such as Ecuador including Galapagos Islands and Bolivia in South America.
PERU TOURS
This is a great opportunity for travelers to explore or taste Peru, we begin in Lima exploring the City of the Kings, then we drive along the Panamerican high way to get to Nasca and do the over-flight of the first astronomical observatory, we continue until we get to Arequipa -The White City, located by the foot of the Misti volcano; we then drive to the famous Colca canyon, better known as the valley of the Condors. There is a good chance to see these birds soaring in the area; we then continue on to Puno where the highest navigable lake in the world is located over 12,000 feet above see level and visit the famous artificial floating islands and have opportunity to interact with the Uros people; we finally get to Cusco -the ancient capital of the Incas, exploring the Sacred Valley as well and finishing our adventure touring Machu Picchu and learning with our local knowledgeable and expert guide.
