Great vacation. Excellent Guides. Good organization
The Inca JourneyExciting trip with lots to do! There were never a dull moment. I would recommend serving more authentic Peruvian food at the lodge.
3 days - Tambopata Amazon JungleThe downside is that there were differences between what we were told in Bogota vs what we were told in Santa Marta. There was little opportunity to take pictures--it was more a march. The upside is that the meals and accommodations exceeded expectations. I think this should be rated a 4, not a 3 on difficulty. I have some suggestions for the people who take care of the site and campsites if you care to contact me.
