The
Andes, from Ecuador through Peru and Bolivia down to central Chile and Argentina,
contain scores of summits over 6,000 metres high. An adequate rate of acclimatization
to high altitude has to be incorporated with some itineraries and is absolutely
imperative. Tours to Lake Titicaca, Cuzco and Machu Picchu are examples of our
acclimatization programs.
