Creator's Key Takeaways

It's such a wellpreserved place. There's different flora there and fauna.

It was absolutely fabulous. And funny, I've talked to a lot of people who have been to India who've done it other ways... they actually didn't have a great time.

Be okay with elevation if visiting Machu Picchu.
Don't be intimidated by Drake Passage rough waters.
