@ai6yr I really need to go back to Cusco. Rainbow mountain wasn’t open when I went, and I really enjoyed my trip.
And yes I’d do this, since each capsule has an en suite. Would not do it if going to the bathroom at night involve rappelling.
Though I really prefer straight up via Ferrata (as opposed to slight overhangs that mean a lot of upper body strength). Via ferratas have pretty good foot holds, athletic sneakers seem fine (maybe not lifestyle sneakers).
Still a risky activity.
@ai6yr ok I have watched this video and I may have some slight concerns. Going to your room in the dark from dinner? And high winds?

@bolderbekah Wow, they started WAY TOO LATE, dark, yikes
@ai6yr the bridge, and the windows that open (no screen) on the open air side. Fun
I'd do this. At least you don't have to climb anywhere to take a pee 😂
I seriously question their choice of footwear for climbing, even on a via ferrata. 🤨 If you're not going to go for colimbing shoes, AT LEAST wear some tight fitting vibram shoes with grip. Not crappy sneakers.
@ai6yr not for me. Lol. Nope. Just looking at it makes me feel weird.
@ai6yr NOPE
