And Edy highlighted every facet of its beauty. He is a natural storyteller and the passion he has for his home is contagious. I knew we would tour amazing historical sites and trek 3 days in the mountains, however, I did not anticipate just how much I would learn and the respect I would gain for these sacred places. Edy was steadfast for our safety and laughed with us like we'd always known each other. Peru will always be with me, Edy made this the trip of a lifetime❤️ Saranya L29 August 2024Verified Machu Picchu trip Explore Cuzco with Peruvian Paths &Adventures was a wonderful trip.
