Trip Summary: Buenos Aires to Machu Picchu



Traveled 7,509 km/4,661 miles in 18 days north through Salta and Jujuy, Argentina, crossing through the rough heart of Bolivia at Salar de Uyuni, then on to Machu Picchu in southern Peru. There we turned around and headed to the coast of Chile before crossing back over the Andes at San Pedro de Atacama and then onto a little outpost in northern Argentina and then back to Buenos Aires. Too many hard days of riding and too few days visiting.
