We (two adults and three children aged 10,11 and 14) climbed the via ferrata with Ario and Natalia as our guides. The trip was very well organised, and Ario and Natalia collected us from our hotel in Urabamba and provided all the equipment we needed and a careful safety briefing. The via ferrata is a series of steel ladders that climb 300m up a steep rock face. You are secured as you climb with two snaplink (carabiners) and Ario provided an extra rope for our younger children to reassure their parents! As we gained height we had spectacular views of the sacred valley looking north towards Ollyantaytambo and the ruins there, with the river and road far below us. The climax was the crossing of a wire bridge above a huge drop. We were given an excellent lunch (we liked the banana biscuits!) and then descended. Although the setting was very dramatic (and not for those afraid of heights) our children greatly enjoyed this and we"d recommend it very highly.

Climbed the Via Ferrata with my brother-in-law and 8-year-old (athletic) nephew. We had the best time! Two weeks seeing the sights in Peru and this was easily the highlight for me. Highly recommend!! Challenging and fun. Suspension bridge and rappel were memorable moments.

Thank you so very much for the great experience on the Sacred Valley Via Ferrata two weeks ago! Rachel and I had a blast, our group was fantastic and Alex was very entertaining. This was a great way to spend the day and we both would recommend it to others looking to squeeze in a day-long adventure.

Just did this yesterday and thought it was amazing. Frankly every other review says it and more. We also did the zipline to come down. The whole day was a blast and put us safely out of our comfort zone. The result was a great joy at what we had accomplished in such a beautiful place.
