Definitely Winipeg and then head a little north. The Skeeters need a good feed in August! ;\)

Half of communication is listening. You can't listen with your mouth.

OK, so much for my criteria... ;\)

We did some looking and my wife ran into some trips to Peru. Hiking Machu Picchu seems WAY too cool not to consider, granted travel is about 11 hours.

Has anyone done this before? Looking for some tips.

We are looking at this so far. Waiting to hear back from them.

They also have an Amazon lodge tour where you travel from lodge to lodge in the rain forest.

Cesar, I've toured most of South America, including climbing all around Machu Picchu. Fortunately, even though August is mid-winter it isn't literally "way too cool"(60ish)and is the dry season, which makes for a better probability of having a pleasant trip.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.
