At the top of the mountain is the Lost City of the Incas which was built approximately in the middle of the XV century until the middle of the XVI century, without an evident reason it was abandoned and kept hidden from the eyes of the world to be rediscovered by a American explorer named Hiram Bingham at the beginning of the 20th century who was in charge of the diffusion and the beginning of the investigations that until today are a mystery to humanity.

Irving was an incredible guide (as well as our driver, Carlos. Initially, we told Irving a rough plan of what we wanted to do in Peru, and he offered suggestions as to every aspect of the trip. There were several sites and activities we would not have thought to book without his input and they were well worth it (such as the salt mines, various archaeological sites, and the short Inca trail). He also made sure to bring us to good spots to eat (which were safe for American tourists), provided useful history and context, helped coordinate the best times to visit certain places to avoid large crowds, and answered any questions we had about the trip, language, etc. Irving was also fun to hike with and supplied hiking sticks which were helpful. Definitely very happy we booked with Irving, as the trip would not have been the same had we gone on our own.
