RUMy dream vacations in Peru, Bolivia and Chile I always choose Safarika Travel for my trips to South America, and this was my third time in this region (visited Ecuador and Colombia before). This time I went to Peru, Bolivia and Chile. As always, big thanks to my travel guru Karina Safari for creative approach in itinerary design and pushing the limits. Two unforgettable weeks in Peru and Bolivia was a blast! Having almost coped with emotions after meeting with Inca masterpieces, I found myself in the fantastic Bolivia scenery, astonishing Uyuni salt desert and becalming smooth surface of Lake Titicaca. Special thanks for wrapping up our travel in Chile, rinsing down impressions with a glass of good wine and enjoying the Pacific from Valparaiso Hills! It was unforgettable!!!!

GBI'm giving 5 stars to this perfectly … I'm giving 5 stars to this perfectly organized hike to Machupicchu. Even though Karina couldn't join us she was still able to take care of every aspect of the trip. Everything was just awesome including food, transfers, accommodation, treks, and our guide company. I'd recommend it and be happy to come along again! Let me know when you're heading towards Bolivia and Torres del Paine.

GBPeru: Salkantay trek, Inca trail, Machu Picchu, Rainbow mountain It was quite an amazing experience to meet unfamiliar people first time at an airport and just after eight days spent together regret our parting so much. Along the journey, besides enjoying the unimaginable beauty of Andes landscapes, uncounted species of plants overflowing the jungles and ancient trails and temples left by Incas, together with my wife we found new friends. Thanks to Karina, our journey was as flawless as it can be possible, even delayed flight seemed to be a part of the adventure but never a trouble.

GBSalkantay Trek, Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain Short version: great trip, do it with Karina for the ultimate experience. Longer version: Both my wife and I are avid travelers and don't trust our vacations to anyone lightly. We did good trips with REI and Active Adventures in the past, so we were on the fence about this one. But once we met Karina in person, we were completely sold by her knowledge of the area and its culture as well as Karina's outpouring positive energy. All the communication during the preparation was timely and informative. The hiking guide operators were excellent. All transitions between hikes and hotels were problem free. The food was better than expected. It also helps to have good like-minded group members and that's where we got really lucky. Already miss my new friends! But again, kudos to Karina as good leaders attract good people.

GBPeru: Salkantay Trek, Inca trail, Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain Travel is about new experiences, mesmerizing vistas, incredible new friends, rewarding challenges, and just ... fun. All that and much more was in the Karina's trip to Peru. Karina's planning and organizational skills are exceptional. Her professionalism and knowledge can please anyone. Peru is amazingly beautiful and so versatile country that eight days are not enough to cover it all, but with Karina I got the flavor of the country and know for sure I will be back someday. If you are longing for breathtaking views, interesting people and experiences, challenging summits, uplifting energy, and gourmet food - that trip is for you!
