The "Februaryists" team visited Machu Picchu - the pearl of Peru, the ancient city of the mystical Inca civilization! In the morning we woke up in a hotel in the town of Aguas Calientes on the banks of the Urubamba River and then went to the entrance to Machu Picchu.

Everyone was delighted! The scale of the city is impressive. It is not surprising that this is the most visited Peruvian attraction, one of the "new wonders of the world"! The return trip to Cusco by train was fun - with the songs and dances of the Peruvians.

This is where the excursion part of our p rogram ends and tomorrow we are going on a trek to the Rainbow Mountains! Guides: Alex Abramov and Sveta Kotlyar.

The guide of the 7 Summits Club Evgeny Fedyunin reports from Tanzania:

02/25. Jambo Ma-Rafiki"! The 7 Summits Club "Ma-Rafiki" group successfully dropped 2 kilometers vertically and returned to civilization! Beer and champagne at the meeting at the gate (the gate of the national park) - the best restoration of the salt-alkaline balance!!! All happy!

And in the evening there was an awards ceremony and new plans for the mountains were already being made. Tomorrow another asset awaits us: a safari with lions and leopards!

Good luck to everyone!

Hello to everyone from Peru from the 7 Summits Club "Februaryists" team! Yesterday the excursion part of our program began. In the morning we left Cusco towards the sacred valley of the Incas and first stopped by a family-run cooperative of hospitable locals, where we were treated to mint tea and shown the process of making thread from alpaca wool.

 Then we visited Chinchero - an archaeological site, an Inca fortress and the fortress of Ollantaytambo. We had lunch in Rio Sagrado - a very cozy restaurant on the river bank, surrounded by greenery. And in the evening, we took the train to Aguas Calientes, a cozy town at the foot of the most famous landmark of Peru - Machu Picchu, which awaits us tomorrow!
