But once you've added diapers and sippy cups to your
packing list, you have more than just your whims to consider when selecting a destination... That beach might be surrounded by jungle that's filled with malaria - carrying mosquitos; reliving that moment in history may involve trekking through territory that's politically unstable, and that fabled spot may be so high it'll cause
altitude sickness.
For those who don't feel up to a four or five day hike, who suffer from
altitude sickness, or who don't quite have the money for the Inca Trail, there is an alternative: the backpacker - budget friendly, action
packed, somewhat easier and increasingly popular Inca Jungle Trek.
