点评:Alpaca Expeditions has done it again! After having the most incredible experience hiking the 4 day Classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with Alpaca last year, we signed up for another expedition to take the 5 day Choquequirao Trek. Although this Inca site is considered the sister city to Machu Picchu, the trek is much less traveled. My husband and I had our own private tour led by our incredible guide Wilbert, along with our own personal chef Roni, and our strong horseman Dino. Wilbert was so knowledgeable and patient with us as we tackled this tough trek, which led us down and up a canyon, twice. He brought such a positive energy to the adventure. Roni cooked us fresh meals 3 times a day to fuel us. Each meal was unique and made with local, fresh ingredients. Dino led the mules that carried our things, and he even invited us to his home that we passed along the trail, where we met his lovely family. Unlike the Inca trail to Machu Picchu, several families live along this trail. It was a wonderful experience meeting the locals and learning more about their way of life. The highlight of this trek was spending a full day at Choquequirao. Some people take the 4 day trek option but then only spend part of the day at the site. The 5 day trek gave us an entire day to explore without needing to rush. Plus, we had most of the site to ourselves. Having a guide is also extremely beneficial, as Wilbert did an excellent job teaching us about the site and the Incas. We feel so fortunate to have had Wilbert, Roni and Dino for our team and recommend Alpaca Expeditions to everyone. The company really goes above and beyond to create the best experience!
翻译:Alpaca Expeditions 又一次给我们带来了惊喜!去年我们参加了 Alpaca 组织的为期四天的经典印加古道徒步之旅,前往马丘比丘,体验了一次难忘的经历。今年,我们再次报名参加了他们的探险之旅,选择了为期五天的乔克基劳徒步路线。虽然这座印加遗址被认为是马丘比丘的姐妹城,但这条徒步路线却远比马丘比丘人迹罕至。我和丈夫享受了一次专属的私人旅行,由我们出色的向导 Wilbert 带领,还有我们的私人厨师 Roni 和强壮的骑手 Dino。Wilbert 知识渊博,耐心十足,带领我们挑战这条艰险的徒步路线,其中两次需要翻越峡谷。他为我们的探险之旅注入了满满的正能量。Roni 每天为我们烹制三顿新鲜美味的餐食,为我们补充能量。每顿饭都独具特色,采用当地新鲜食材。Dino 负责驾驭驮运行李的骡子,他还邀请我们去他家做客,我们路过他家时,正好遇到了他可爱的家人。与前往马丘比丘的印加古道不同,这条徒步路线沿途有很多家庭居住。与当地人交流并了解他们的生活方式是一次美妙的体验。这次徒步旅行的亮点是在乔克基劳遗址度过一整天。有些人选择四天的行程,但实际上每天只在遗址停留半天。而五天的行程让我们有整整一天的时间可以悠闲地探索,无需匆忙。此外,我们几乎独享了整个遗址。有向导也极其重要,威尔伯特出色地为我们讲解了遗址和印加文明。我们非常幸运能有威尔伯特、罗尼和迪诺加入我们的团队,并向所有人推荐Alpaca Expeditions。这家公司真的竭尽全力,力求打造最佳体验!
