    Once again a dream that I realize Gorgoeous trip. This trip will not so fantastatic without Carmen our tour leader. She has excellent knowledge who was passionate about her country and love to share her culture and heritage with the group. She did that with her heart. Very good other guide also Keke for the Colca Canyon,... Varied activities, historical, homestay (communities), landscape, some animals (condors, other birds...), pisco sour, ... And also the wonderfull Inca trail (Yes I did it ;-))).Magic moments when we arrive to see the Matchu Pitchu after the 4 days of the trail. In more very good group good mood, atmosphere, ecouragments, partying... Good accomodation (big room, good located, ), good oragnized, excellent night bus (very confortable, space realy better than in Europe) . There are some long travel but it is like that. I come back with a lot of stars in my eyes !

    If you like primitive camping this is the trip for you. Disconnecting was just what I needed to reset. Make sure you bring long pants and plenty of insect spray if mosquitoes bother you. List of animals I saw: caman, river otter family, squirrel monkeys, howler monkeys, macaws, cabibarras, piranhas, tucanes and many more. Words can not express how much I loved it.

    This tour was a taste of the west coast of Brazil and certainly lived up to expectations. The tour leader, Luma was very passionate, energetic and informative about the country, making her a great advert for not just Intrepid Travel, but also Brazil. The small historical city of Paraty was a very historical and cultural place to visit and the island of Ilha Grande was very picturesque. The only trouble was as Ilha Grande was a tourist destination you do get hit with heavily inflated prices and sometimes sub-standard food (this was not the case in Paraty though). The final stop was Rio De Janierio, where the hotel was great (better than the other two) and lived up to all expectation of being one of the most iconic cities in the world (especially as the world record setting Lady Gaga concert coincided with the end of the tour). Now I am just waiting for an Intrepid tour that includes the Pantana and Florianópolis
