My overall experience on this trip was absolutely unforgettable. The locations were stunning, and the people of Peru were incredibly warm and welcoming. I always felt safe exploring both Cusco and Lima, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The four-day hike to Machu Picchu was truly amazing, and the final tour of Machu Picchu (Circuito 2), led by David, was a definite highlight. The views were simply breathtaking—an experience I’ll never forget!
