For Hideaways member Bill Sarmento and his partner, Charles Wilson, both of Ogunquit, Maine, a recent trip to Peru and the ancient Inca citadel of Machu Picchu was part of their game plan to fulfill a life list of travels. According to Bill, the two already had experienced several of the Seven Wonders of the World, both old and "new," including Egypt's Great Pyramid at Giza, the Great Wall of China, and India's Taj Mahal. So it was a natural that their wanderlust led them into discussions about exploring Peru and tackling Machu Picchu. And that, in turn, led them to contact their Hideaways Travel Consultant.

"Darcy has handled every one of our trips, and she is superb," said Bill. "She takes care of everything, from hotels to private guides, and our trips always go smoothly. I can't imagine planning an important trip without her assistance."
