Late but always on time

Things seems to run late in Cusco, maybe they like sleeping in, but you don’t worry they will pick you up. The first day is warm hike that will get you acclimatized to the altitude. You”ll find it really tough on your lungs if your not used to it, don’t run i tested it out and nearly passed out after a 30m dash. You will get blisters you feet will hurt but it is a rewarding hike. Take extra cash and break larger notes at the bank in Cusco before you leave for your tour as there are many opportunities to buy water or chocolate on the way.
