Transparent capsule hotels hang 400ft above Peru's Sacred Valley

Want to push your adrenaline as high as it will go during your next vacation?

For about $300 per person, the Natura Vive Skylodge in Peru's Sacred Valley offers thrill-seekers the chance to sleep within a completely transparent pod wedged high on a mountainside. The 192 square feet suites are constructed from aerospace aluminum and weather-resistant polycarbonate, and each capsule has a private bathroom separated from the bedroom, complete with sink and bathroom with curtains for privacy.

The package includes breakfast, gourmet dinner with wine, transportation from Cusco and professional bilingual guides. But before they even get to their hotel rooms, daredevils must climb a 400-foot cliff face. Travelers will be provided with mountain climbing equipment such as climbing harness, helmet, gloves, etc.
