Support LOROS by taking on one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Machu Picchu, and the stunning Inca sites surrounding Cusco in this amazingly unforgettable Peru adventure.

Story

My 10-day trip with Loros will begin in the Inca Capital of Cusco, a fascinating city full of colonial charm, where I'll acclimatise to the 3,300m altitude.  A day after arriving start the Inca trail trek to Machu Picchu, staying in a tent for 4 nights. The trail encompasses three high mountain passes - the highest being 4,200m - and will definitely test me.  On the final day we wake before sunrise and hike to the Sun Gate, and hopefully see the sun rise over Machu Picchu.  If any of my friends can support me on this epic adventure I'd be extremely grateful.  I am paying for the entire trip myself so all monies raised will go to LOROS
