AT#928 - Travel to Machu Picchu, Peru

11 Jan 2025

Description

Hear about travel to Machi Picchu as the Amateur Traveler talks to Michael from Rochester about his bucket list visit to this famous Inca site and more in Peru. Why should you visit Machu Picchu? Michael says, "I'm going to tell you why I wanted to go to Machu Picchu. First, as I have to say, probably a fifth-grade student, it was just one of those iconic historical places that I remember from my childhood. Always saying, 'I'm going to go there someday.'" Michael recommends a carefully planned itinerary for visiting Machu Picchu and its surrounding areas, focusing on acclimatization, cultural immersion, and maximizing the experience. Here's the itinerary he outlines: Day 1: Arrival in Lima (Miraflores District) Objective : Relax after the flight and ease into the trip. Stay : Miraflores, a safe and upscale district with excellent dining options and boutique hotels. Activities : Explore the Malecón (a scenic coastal walkway). Visit nearby Barranco for its artsy vibe and street art. Have dinner at Isolina , a restaurant known for authentic Peruvian food. Tip : Avoid visiting downtown Lima unless you have extra time, as the Spanish colonial architecture is similar to what you'll see in Cusco.  ... https://amateurtraveler.com/ travel-to-machu-picchu / Learn more about your ad choices.
