“Samuel was amazing - The experience with Sam Zipline and Samuel’s team was amazing. The activity takes place at the Mirador de Rachi, just a few minutes from Urubamba, and we were recommended from the hotel. The whole process was very safe, we were given helmets, gloves, harnesses and all the necessary equipment. Also, the transportation back and forth from the hotel was super practical.
