A lovely, but kinda though trek. 🏔 - Me and my girlfriend booked a Colca Trek through Sky Viares. ☀️ The service at the office in Arequipa was 6/5. The agent at the office spoke a perfectly clear English, and gave a very good service! We called the office at 6:55 (they would close at 19:00), and he stayed after hours to complete the booking. (After I forgot some important papers at the office, and had already taken the bus away from Arequipa, he alerted, and helped dispose of them.) The trek was both very good and at a competitive price. We stayed at a nice resort in the bottom of the Colca. 🛌 The food served was also very good, with the lunch on the 1. being a highlight. Served at a small “resort”, it was very authentic. The cherry on top was our group, that made the trek so memorable ✨ Overall a great experience, that I would highly recommend. 5/5
