This Hostal/Hotel is located right on the central plaza. If you stay here during the Inti Raymi the procession will pass right by your window.

The café serves mainly whole and homemade foods with several vegetarian options. The menu has an Englis…

Huayna Picchu is the tall mountain behind Machu Picchu. You can hike to the top for a wonderful overview of Machu Picchu. The hike is strenuous with lots of stone steps and the higher altitude can cause you to lose your breath quickly. Only 300 people are allowed to do this hike each day and it i…

One of the best hostels on my trip. Don't go there if you're after a nice quiet night with a lot of sleep. Do go there if you're up for some nights of partying and meeting people. I even enjoyed it so much that I ended up working there for just over a month in which I had an amazing time with all th…

I visited this hotel when I went to see the dodge south america jetski race. I stayed four days and I loved it. The staff is great and it is close to everything. Since we were part of the race team the hotel manager told us that we could park our jetski's in their garage for free. I highly recommend…

Una aventura excitante. El viaje en tren (tres horas) te recrea toda la hermosura del paisaje. Maravilloso lugar, hay que caminar mucho pero al final... te transportas a otro mundo. Los inkas merecen nuestro respeto!!!

Food is delicious. Ridiculously delicious. Peruvian cuisine is some of the best in the world. People are poor and there's crazy amounts of pollution that your eyes will hurt. But the food is so amazing. I gained 12lbs while i was there for only 2 weeks! Pardos Chicken is like the basic pollo a la br…

Hostal Pukara is more then a hostal, more of a small, simple hotel. It its located in Lima, Peru
At 130 Gonzales Larranaga st.
San Antonio Miraflores.
The choice of me staying here was because my trip with Intrepid Travel uses this location as start of the tours of Peru.
Good location as it…

We stumbled into this amazing indoor local market a couple blocks from the city center. The inside was a colorful explosion of food and people. It was filled with fresh produce in sacks – potatoes, onions, peppers, tomatoes, corn, squash, carrots and more. One corner held cheeses, another fruit…

Cusco is one of the highest elevation cities in the world at an elevation of about 3300m (10,000 ft). It was built by the Incas as a center of their empire. The city was laid out in a pattern to resemble a puma. Several of the original Inca walls still exist. These walls are composed of stones t…

The ruins at Ollantaytambo stretch above the city on the hillside. 200 steps take you up through the agricultural terraces to the temple of Ten Niches where large stone blocks contain knobs of unknown purpose. These terraces are taller than most Inca terraces and have cut stones - a sign of presti…

This train is a popular way for budget travelers to get from Machu Picchu to Cusco. The train is very crowded and cramped with not much leg room. There is no food or beverage service, but you can buy drinks on the train. The trip to Cusco takes 4 hours, 4 very long cramped, uncomfortable hours. …

We took a cab to the ruins on top of the mountain behind Cusco. These ruins are different from the others we’ve seen because they are made of HUGE stone blocks. The fortress was much larger in Incan times, but Spaniards, and later the locals, used the large stones as their own quarry. Only the …

We stayed three nights at the Niños Hotel while in Cusco and loved it. We stopped in Cusco a few days earlier so we could reserve rooms for later in the week. All the rooms with private bathrooms were taken so we got two double rooms with the shared bathroom at the corner of the courtyard. We fe…
