other regions of the country. The adventure will take you to the most
remote villages inhabited by ethnic minorities whose daily costumes are
of different colors. All meals will be prepared by our adventure chef.
Because of climate and geography, the best time to make the trip only
from September to May. Please know that it is impossible during the
rainy season.
