- AJack Szumowski· March 6th, 2022It was a wonderful experience that helped me to connect with new people from all walks of life and cultures. I hope to become a better person after seeing how the highland people interact with each other treating everyone as brother and sister. How it is the people around you that make life what it is.

Asked on January 10th, 2025How should I prepare regarding medical insurance?

Alan
Asked on January 4th, 2025Is there a lot of waiting around with group sizes of 16 people? Any cheaper with own gear or sleeping bags, mats etc?
- G AdventuresOperator•Written January 2025
There wouldn't be any waiting around no, everyone will just be on the move together. The following are available to rent locally: Camping mattress/sleep mat (45 soles), Sleeping bag (45 soles), Walking poles (15 soles each (30 per pair)). This would not lower the base tour cost on the website, but you could avoid renting the equipment as listed above.
