“When you are ready for one of those trips of a lifetime, Native Tours, is a very good place to start. We were struck by Karen Vegara’s close relationships with not only the Parks, Trails and local guides - who make-or-break a venture like this. If you are into hiking, they’ve been there and done it, many times. Cusco and Machu Picchu were a long way outside of our comfort zone, and it turned out to be the high light of our South American travels. Karen’s knowledge and integrity made our Peruvian travels easy and enjoyable!”
