Belle journée qui nous a permis de faire rapidement le tour du Colca Canyon et de voir plus que nous aurions pensé (arrêt dans un petit village, condors, hot springs, etc.). En débutant la journée, il nous a été offert du thé de Moña – super efficace pour le mal aigu des montagnes. Le guide a transmis des informations super intéressantes. Seul point constructif, le tour aurait pu être moins long en limitant deux des arrêts qui ont été moins pertinents – débuter vers 5h-6h am aurait été suffisant.

Superbe journée, avec un guide exceptionnel !
Il parlait parfaitement anglais et a pris le temps de traduire à chaque fois ses explications (ce qui n’est pas le cas de tous les guides au Pérou..!). Un véritable puit de culture péruvienne, une merveille !
Une journée superbement organisée, très complète, bref, allez-y les yeux fermés !

Muy completo y destacando la constante preocupación de nuestro guía por entender la mística del colca, hicimos un ritual para ofrendar a los cerros (apus) como señal de respeto. Los tiempos fueron correctos y permitió una buena organización del viaje, he quedado
