Anne:
We plan to spend the first three weeks of February visiting Peru/Machu Picchu and Ecuador/Galapagos Islands. After an initial day touring Lima, we'll spend two days in and around the Sacred Valley. Any opinions on the Hotel Monastario versus the Liberador in Cusco? What is the hiking like around Machu Picchu and what hikes did you take (guided v. unguided)? Any comparisons of the Vista Dome versus the Hiram Bingham? We then spend another day in the Sacred Valley before flying to Quito.
