I agree, it's sad to see places like Stonehenge and Machu Picchu on the endangered wonders list. Even Michaelangelo's David is threatened by vibrations of people flocking to see the statue's beauty (http://www.iiconservation.org/news/?p=162). Does Wanderlust have a list of responsible tour operators to recommend. I don't have any links for Stonehenge, but I have bookmarked http://www.Karikuy.org as a promising possibility for experiencing Machu Picchu. Anyway, thanks for posting this. It's good to promote awareness. These wonders are uniting forces for humanity, and we do want to preserve such experiences for generations to come.
