Sample Book Insights:
#1 John Leivers, a guide in Cusco, had been recommended to me. He had started coming to Cusco twenty years ago when he was working as an extreme-trip leader, driving fearless globe-trotters across four continents in an open-back truck. He had seen interest in serious adventure dwindle. People wanted hotels, cafés, and the Internet.
#2 Hiram Bingham III was the explorer who discovered Machu Picchu. He was a Yale University history lecturer who happened to be passing through Cusco in 1909 when he learned of a four-hundred-year-old unsolved mystery. He thought the experts were wrong, and he scoured obscure texts and maps for clues to its location.
#3 I wanted to retrace Bingham’s route through the Andes on the way to discovering Machu Picchu.
#4 The Inca Trail is a popular trek in Peru that leads to Machu Picchu. It is not very far, but it is a bit steep. It is a must-do if you want to get a sense of Peru’s natural beauty.
