We had a great time doing this 4 day tour. The activities were fun and the food and accommodations were great. Our guide Ricardo was excellent, he knows so much about the area, history and especially about coffee

We wanted to know more about Inca culture, and we traveled as a mother and daughter and had an amazing time.
