Kirsten Koza spent 2-4 weeks with Saul Ceron.
 Description17 Days of Mountain Biking with 9 women: From Lima, to the Nasca Lines, Arequipa, Misti Volcano, Colca Canyon, Puno, Lake Titicaca, Cusco, Sacred valley of the Incas, Santa Maria Jungle, Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu, through cloud forests and coca plantations.
Best bits: We visited rural villages and even a school where tourists never go. Saul was incredibly flexible--when we happened upon an unexpected festival in the Colca Canyon, our trip was altered (even where we were spending the night) so we could take our time dancing in a bullring with the locals of Huambo. Saul and his support team were always dynamic and fun! He had expert local guides join us in each area so the individual guides changed with each region we travelled through.
Worst bits: The "worst bits" were beyond Saul's control and are all part of the adventure of travel: earthquake, stomach trouble, altitude sickness, mountain fog, bug bites... Saul was brilliant through it all. I'm glad he was there to hand me my barf bag and coax my ego into the support vehicle!
