The Urubamba river runs from the high Andean ranges down through the Sacred
Valley of the Incas, past Machupicchu and into the jungle. It has some exciting
white water depending on the section of the river being done and the time of the
year. One of our most popular rafting sections during the season is the "Cusipata"
section of the river on the Upper Urubamba. There are good class IIl rapids and
the water is not contaminated, as unfortunately the Huambutio and Ollantaytambo
section of the river are contaminated.

half hours drive we arrive to the put -in at the shores of "Cusipata River Camp"

floating for approximately two and a half hours, running class II , introductory
type rapids. Afterwards , we will drive back and spend the night at "CASA CUSI",
where we have a thatched roof camping area with comfortable dining place, a
sauna and hot tub , hammocks and excellent food. You will fall asleep under the
whisper of the river.

Hello all the folks at Peru Gateway Travel,
We had a fantastic time in Peru. We thank you all for making
our trip a success.
The only concern is that the accommodation in Cusco was below
average and we would not recommend the Emparada Plaza (?) to
anyone. Even though the staff was good, the room/bathroom,
breakfast was very bad.
Once again, thanks a lot for making our trip to your country a
memorable one. All the guides, especially Guillarmo in Lima
and Erica in Cusco, were excellent.

We arrived home at 4 o'clock in the
morning, very tired (we had a long lay-over in Amsterdam) but very
very happy. I am so pleased to tell you that our Peru vacation that
you planned for us was excellent! Everything was just as the
itinerary said it would be. We were very pleased with the hotels,
and the transfer people and guides were always there and everybody
was so nice and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about your very
exciting country and its history, particularly about the Quechua
culture. We will always remember the Inti Raymi festival in Cusco. I
am so glad we were able to see that. Of course Machu Picchu was also
a great highlight. And, Michael and I also very much liked Arequipa.
We didn't know much about that city, but we had a very great time
there on our free day and visited the cathedral, spent a lot of time
going through the Santa Catalina monastario and, of course, went to
the museum to see "Juanita". Beautiful architecture there too.
Really, every day was wonderful, and we would like to thank you so
much for all your efforts. Also please extend our thanks to Maria
Carmen who was so helpful on the phone and to Julia, who came to the
hotel our first night to explain many things to us and give us all
our tickets and vouchers. And perhaps you also had something to do
with our last night in Lima at the Libertador. We got a suite -- a
very big beautiful room! Thank you so much.
We wish you and your family all the best, and for sure we will be
recommending Peru Gateway Travel to our friends.
