Michael is great and his wife Gaby is really warm-hearted. To both of them and their staff many thanks. It was a shame that we only had three days, they turned into three days of continual pleasure, living at the rhythm of the natural world. Of course the last day was the best. Walking up at down in a high mountain pass while enjoying a tea of herbs collected by Mr. Trekking with Schatzie (the Airedale Terrier puppy), through landscapes of incomparable lush beauty, underneath a blue sky. Above our heads boisterous parrots and above the hills, condors and eagles were soaring. Time to meditate at the mountain peak and to understand the ecology of the orchids and butterflies of the ravines. We also collected wild fruits. At the end there were beautiful waterfalls where we could dip our tired feet. The food was excellent, the camping equipment in perfect condition, Gaby’s jeep very picturesque. Days full of adventure that I’m sure we will never ever forget.
Ruth and Holger - 1 day of trekking in Amboró and two days at El Fuerte and the Cuevas waterfalls Samaipata Surroundings
