After a morning shopping spree in Cusco, Bruno reunited me with my sweater, which I had left in the van the previous day. Then we were headed back to Lima. But not before meeting the wild women walking crew, several of whom even remembered us from their dancing exploits of Friday night.
We arrived in Lima around 3:00 and decided to take a city tour. We had several hours to kill and thought it would be great to see some of the city. We visited a monastery that had underground catacombs. The monastery had original handmade and hand painted Spanish tiles on the walls that were beautiful. The catacombs had several hallways with various ceiling heights. Simon and I are both a bit, well, height challenged, so the warnings of “watch your head” were perhaps not taken as seriously as they should have been and Simon almost knocked himself out on the low ceiling. We’ll keep that in mind for the next catacombs we visit. After the monastery we visited the Gold Museum. On the floor above the Gold Museum, which is very cool, there is a military museum with perhaps the largest stockpile of weaponry outside the Michigan Militia. Once we’d had our fill of gold and guns it was back through the crazy traffic to the airport. We headed back to the US on an overnight flight. Our journey ended where it began, in Detroit, then home.
The agent had great response to questions and coordinated well to create an itinerary that met our expectations.

Kelly and Rhenee were excellent to work with on planning our trip. The logistics all worked smoothly and everyone was friendly and on time. Our accommodations were very good, particularly the incredible Patagonia Camp in Torres del Paine! Our guides on every excursion were outstanding and made the hikes memorable! Overall we had a wonderful trip with incredible memories!

Adventure Life is definitely a first-class safari tour company, and our representative was Franny Friesz. First of all, she responded immediately after we contacted Adventure Life. We told Franny that we had never been on a safari, and she was more than eager to offer a mountain of information about the trip. She informed us fully about all the ups, downs, and all arounds! She even prepared a number of packages for us to review -- even after we made changes to the areas we wanted to explore. Friendly, helpful, professional, and extremely knowledgeable -- these words describe Franny, and what a wonderful trip she prepared! We couldn't have asked for better service than Franny of Adventure Life. We HIGHLY recommend her and her outstanding company! Bon Voyage!

The staff at Adventure Life made planning my family's trip to the Galapagos Islands as easy as possible. They listened to what we were hoping to experience and made thoughtful suggestions about how to accomplish our vacation goals while meeting the needs of travelers ages 17-76! They patiently answered questions and follow up questions in the months leading up to the trip. They helped us trouble shoot and customize the trip in every way possible. The logistics involved in traveling from Boston to the Galapagos are innumerable. The Adventure Life staff helped us arrange every detail and the team they assembled in the Galapagos was tremendous. I have never done a trip this big before and after working with Adventure Life this time--would not hesitate one second in working with them again.
