Cusco Hotels - Reviews and Rates

Machu Pichu was one of the top experiences of our trip. We can´t believe we only have a few days to go before we fly back to Australia.

There were 11 others on our 4 night 4 day trek to Machu Pichu along the Inca Trail. We all got along really well and our two guides were great. The porters (our group had 14) carried about 25kg each up an...

Cusco must be the most touristy town I've been to on my trip and we arrived there at 6am after an overnight trip from Puno. To be honest I didn't like Cusco too much even though it had some excellent architecture on offer. I think was put me off was all the people trying to sell/hassle you, the fact that there was a Paddy O'Neil's pub or Big Mam...

Last day of school at Amuata. I now have the nerves and anxieties that I expect most people get before they get on the plane out of the UK. As I´ve been to Cusco before, had Jane and Tom waiting in the wings, I wasn´t at all worried about getting to Peru, it was a bit been-there-done-that. Now I´m due to leave all that behind and really start th...

From Arequipa we took a short flight, one hour twenty minutes to Cuzco, the capital of the Inca empire.We were staying here for one night before begining the Inca trail. After the Inca trail we were then staying a futher 5 nights in Cuzco. Cuzco was by far the nicest city I have been in in South America. It has a lovely relaxed atmosphere with a...

I cant remember exactly what order we did things in, but whilst we were in Cusco we did 3 day trips around the area and we saw a number of processions during Semana Santa. The processions that we saw included the ¨Procession of the Lord of the Earthquake, the Maundy Thursday fiesta where they decorate the churches with amazing flowers and you ar...

I just heard from Jose that he will be presenting at Calico Street (River Valley Church) on the 23rd and 24th of February. He said he will also be making a presentation for the adults in the near future. We are still in Cusco and having a great time. The Beny's are incredible hosts. They are easy and fun to talk to and most mornings we wake up t...

Day 4. I have the best sleep ever! I woke up only once. And true to Santiago's word, I feel like a new man! Today's push will take us through extreme jungle up to 3600 masl and back down 1800 masl where we will finish the walking portion of our trek and catch a 40 minute train to Aguas Calientes. Up three hours and down three hours. Same thing a...

Hi all So nothing much had changed since my last post. Unfortunately we are on a forced rest here in Cusco. I was a little sick and Dina's blisters got infected and we had to take anti-biotics. So we didn't go to Ariquipa and Manu Parque. So I will try to bid you time with a culinary report. The best 5 places we have eaten in Peru 5. Juan's cock...

In the absence of an update in a while, there is, of course, mucho to catch up on. So here we find ourselves in the mecca that is Cusco, the tourists swarm to this place, every Peruvian person seems to be fluent enough in English to try and sell you something. I arrived off the nightbus at the usual ungodly hour of about 6 or 7 in the morning ha...
