Nice Video!!! What time of the year did you guys do the trek? I am think of doing the same mid November and trying to understand what the weather will be and get a feeling of the temperatures. Anything you like to share? Thank you!
Hello Vasken. October/ November is a perfect time for this trip. Take time to find a good agency on location. There are a lot and some are not as good as they should be :D
Its a typical local song. I dont know exactly the name. Got it from a local guy :D If you definitely need the name of the song I can try to find it out...?
yourdailymilk I like the song very much and it its not a big deal for you i would be grateful if you would find the title for me! My other question would be i plan to go to do this trek in this october and already picked up contact with the ecotrekkersperu you recommended some comments below. Are they reliable? Because they are quite cheap and havent responded yet (i wrote them like 2-3 days ago) Thanks!
Hi Andreas! Just wanted to ask you, I'll be there in October, any suggestion for the best and most affordable tour operator for the Salkantay Trek? Thanks! David :)
Hey David dohm96 I can suggest you to go with Ecopakers. There are lokacted in Cusco. I did the 4 days, 3 nights trip and it was wonderful. You can find theme here: ecopackersperu.com/ecotours/en/machupicchu-treks-and-routes/10-salkantay-trek-5-dias-4-noches.html Was this helpful enough or do you need more infos?
Hello! I will be going on the Salkantay trail as well to Machu Picchu! I was wondering what camera you brought to film? And how did you keep it charged?
Hey CristiSunflower . For mountaineer outs like this one I suggest always to go with a light one, like an iPhone or something that is good for snapshots or fast filming. First you have to carry it at always with you and it should not be too heavy. Second you should easily turn it off or on as you keep on walking and not loosing the rest of the group while you start setting up your complicated camera. Was this helpful enough?
You can charge it. The Salkantay Trek is about 5 days of Hiking. There is only one night in a tent. So for that you have to save battery. But you can easily do it by putting the iPhone in "Flight Mode". There it can stay more than three days. By night time you turn it off.
We cooked our own food, prepared by the Cook. It was okay and just for one night. But for the fact that youre in the Mountains the Food was great. The whole trip was all inclusive and not so expensive. Just google Sallantay trek, there are a amount of agencies who offer it.
David J. Greenwood Yes, it is. But you really have to look for the views and angles you wanna make in advance - as the Iphone has some limitations - its still just a phone :D
This is a pretty cool video of a breathtaking hike!
Great video.Thanks.
es magnifico el lugar donde estan y is very cute

Superb. You did so much (love the floating islands... is that lake Titicaca?)
Hey David. Thanks a lot. Yes, it is Lake Titicaca. Are you planning to do some Peru?
Hi nice vid! I think Salcantay trek is more beautiful than inca trail and lots of cheaper as well! Whats the name of the first song?

Great video as usual! Could I get the song name that starts at 2:00?
Hey, Sorry, at 2:00 is no Music :-(
did you cook your own food? what kind of food did you bring along?
+sito We booked a guide and a cook, two horses as well for transportation. The food was good :D You can book it everywhere there
what food did you eat? what type of stove did the cook used? how much was the cost for booking cook, 2 horses & guide?
We cooked our own food, prepared by the Cook. It was okay and just for one night. But for the fact that youre in the Mountains the Food was great. The whole trip was all inclusive and not so expensive. Just google Sallantay trek, there are a amount of agencies who offer it.
