Inca Explorer Vacation for Two

My dream trip to Machu Picchu…

I’ve used Anywhere to plan my Costa Rica trip before, and this time I wanted to see what their Peru experience was like. We loved the individualized attention, and attention to detail when coordinating services and transportation. My bucket list destination was Machu Picchu, but I also wanted to experience the culture and hikes that the rest of Peru offers. We also wanted to spend a few days by the coast, and Cesar recommended Lima, which was amazing! We loved the individualized attention, and attention to detail when coordinating services and transportation.

Acclimating in Cusco…

We spent some time in Cusco to acclimate to the altitude. We loved the culture of this town and enjoyed exploring the shops, museums, and churches in the area. JW Marriott in Cusco is a comfortable stay. The food at the restaurant was amazing (try the crispy pork belly and octopus appetizer), we loved the additional oxygen in the rooms (we definitely needed it after completing some high-altitude trekking in the area), and the service was exceptional

The most memorable thing about this vacation...

Aguas Calientes is a nice small town and we enjoyed our time there. We loved exploring the market and the proximity to Machu Picchu was very convenient. At Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel we were upgraded to a honeymoon suite free of charge due to the fact that our original room was next to construction. All the food at the restaurant was delicious (we especially liked the stuffed peppers appetizer). The grounds of the hotel were beautifully kept.
