I am planning a trip to Macchu Picchu in March. What should my itinerary look like?
by

1 Answer

Answer :

I know you will want to go to Cuzco first and get acclimated to the altitude before hiking. If you have the money, you might want to consider going with a small guided group trip such as those run by Classic Journeys or OAT. Otherwise, I would sugget checking out their websites to see what their itineraries are like. I haven’t been to Macchu Picchu yet so I can’t make specific recommendations, but I followed the Classic Journeys itinerary when we went to Costa Rica and it worked well.
