Sumary in English: We left our hostel at 8 AM to make sure we do not miss the plane. We took the tube and a bus to the airport. It was straight-forward and we had a plenty of time at the airport. We spent hours shopping there and spending our last chileans' money. We wanted to buy some pisco sour - the chilean alcoholic drink but the lady at the till told us we can not buy any alcohol because we do not have a direct fly :( And she was right and saved our money. We could see lots of [View Full Entry]

Summary in English: We just went to book an accomodation to the hostel for our last night in Chile when we arrived to Santiago. We left the small backpacks in this hostel and then we headed out of the city to the Cajon del Maipo. We wanted to go the Banos Morales and do some treking from there. But we found out there is just one bus in the mornig which goes over there. So we took a bus just to the village San Alfonso. We would describe Canon del Maipo as a weekend destination to the nature for many of [View Full Entry]

Summary in English: We moved to the Tacna - the town on the Peru-Chilean border from the Arequipa. We took a taxi transfer car from there to cross the border. We decided for the taxi after few not very sucesfull tries to get information about bus. The cross of the border was easy going and taxi took us to the bus terminal in Arica. We did not have any plans where to go next. So we studied there information from our Lonely Planet. Because we were finally down from the high altitude enjoing hot wheather, we wanted to stop at the [View Full Entry]

Summary in English: We found good and cheap accomodation in Arequipa (Scandinavia hostel, Calle Ugarte). Arequipa was our last stop in Peru. We wanted to visit Colca Canon - the deepest canon in the world, which is few hours from here. We did not know to decide if to go there on our own or by some tourist agency. But after few warnings because of rainy season and founding some bad news on internet we decided for the agency. After all it was good decision because our guide was a nice guide, who answered us all questions we had. He told [View Full Entry]

Sumary in English: When we arrived to Cusco we find out that there is a strike next day. Everything was closed, no busses, no trains, no taxis. So we had to rest for one day. We bought train tickets to Aguas Calientes (gateway to Machu Picchu) next day and took local bus to Pisaq. Pisaq is nice small town with large Inca ruins. Amazing how they could built it over there, high on the tops of the hills. We headed to Ollaytaytambo next day. We stopped to visit salt plains and circle terraces. There are another ruins in Ollaytaytambo and from [View Full Entry]

Summary in English: We crossed border between Bolivia and Peru by walk. We did not want to pay lots of money for tourist bus and this was more adventurous :) We headed to Puno, another city on lake Titicaca. Peru is very similar to Bolivia, but more expensive and more touristic as well. People are used to tourists and they are trying to sell you everything, offering goods all the time. It was not very comfortable for us. The biggest attraction of Puno is visiting islands on lake Titicaca. We wanted to save a day, so we decided just for a [View Full Entry]

Summary in English: Copacabana was our last stop in Bolivia. It is very nice city on the Lake Titicaca. It has a beautiful cathedral. And it is famous because you can go for a trip to Island of the Sun and Island of the Moon from here. There is a big hill with stations of cross in this city from where there is a nice view over the lake, islands and the city. Ahojte, uz sme doma na slovensku. Ale kedze tu mame este nejake resty tak este chvilku budete citavat ako sa nam dari, resp. darilo. Ale po poriadku. Z [View Full Entry]

We never thought we can hike to 6000 metres high peak, but we made it. We just hired a guide. We were aclimatesed quite well. And we could go. We had an ice-climbing training on the 1st day. We moved to the base camp on the second day. And we started to walk at 1 AM on the 3rd day. It was not technically difficult. The only problem was the altitude and problems conected with it - stomack sickness, headache, breathless. But we made it through all this to the top 6088m. We could not believe it and we were very [View Full Entry]

We bought direct bus tickets to La Paz from Uyuni (where we finished our 4 day tour). Normally, it should be 6-7 hours journey. But unfortunatelly, our bus got stucked in the mud after the 1st hour. Everybody tried to help. We spent there an hour trying to get bus back on the road. 3 other buses came and tried to help. But the bus did not want to continue anymore. So we were split to the other buses (with some difficulties because the buses were already full) and had to travel to Oruro which is the town on the way. [View Full Entry]
