How to Get to MACHU PICCHU for CHEAP | 2024 PERU Travel Tips

[@kennethcarr2449]

Such an amazing place to visit. Photos does this place no justice. If you never been, try to go.

[@ChewsToExplore]

Truly blew us away the entire time. The views were spectacular and an amazing experience

[@Busybeeee]

I appreciate this guide to saving money however, it does seem complicated. I calculated how much it would cost me to do this independently versus a tour and I’ll be paying $100 more for an organized tour which will takeoff a lot of stress and do all this for me. They also pick me up at my hotel from Cusco. In this case it’s worth saving it a little extra for a little less hassle. Nevertheless, great video.😊

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thanks for sharing your perspective! It's always important to weigh the pros and cons before making a decision. I'm glad you found the video helpful.

[@nmmk9134]

Im Going please share the link to the travel guide.

[@Busybeeee]

@@nmmk9134 I did it with a company called Machu Pichu Terra. I took the full day package and paid $270. It was incredible. It Included pick up at hotel , train to Aguas Caliente and bus to Machu Pichu. Also included a guide and photographers that were with you all day. Google them and read my review! Have fun. ( PS I did go in February which is low season and it rained so it may cost more in the summer which is high season)

[@themelanatedtraveler]

Great content bro! I can't wait to go back and explore the country more.

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thanks for watching and all the support, There is still so much to see and do that we couldnt get to

[@ATLIEN333]

I'm a big ancient culture enthusiast and have always wanted to go to Machu Picchu. I just wonder how my body would feel at that height and my age? Would being that high up give me anxiety/acrophobia? I would like to know how did it affect you while there even though you're much younger? The altitude part. Great content always

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm glad you enjoy the content. As for the altitude at Machu Picchu, it can definitely affect people differently, regardless of age. It takes some days to get acclimated to it but there were a lot of older people there as well. Stay safe and keep exploring!

[@ATLIEN333]

@@ChewsToExplore Thanks for your reply and information. It's definitely "high" on my bucket list .Yeah I know corny attempt 😁..

[@TravelSergeant]

What a great idea to keep luggage in Lima

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thanks for tuning in, yea definitely cheaper to get a cheap accommodation than to pay those baggage fees.

[@Sabrina-od4mr]

Once again another well done video by you and Olivia. Did you have to take any vaccines before visiting Peru? Thanks for the information.

[@ChewsToExplore]

No Vaccines required, just bring your passport as an American!

[@theroadletstravel]

Machu Picchu is so magical! You two gave such helpful info on how to get there. Its definitely a pricey long ride there but so worth it! Def agree staying in the pueblo is necessary

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thanks again for supporting us. I couldn't believe how affordable the country is yet how much the ride to machu Picchu was

[@TonyVSTheWorld]

Bruhhhhhhhh!!!!!! I been to alot of the wonders. Never have i ever had to do that many steps just to get to a place. I'm gonna hate myself in like 3 weeks 😩😩😩😩

[@ChewsToExplore]

Haha I told you its not easy but it will all be worth it!

[@suzetteyngson5020]

Hi! Interested in going here! What time of the year did you guys go to Machu Picchu! The weather looks great!

[@ChewsToExplore]

We visited in July!

[@rod6547]

When you booked your Machu Picchu ticket online did it give you an option for Circuit 2? Thank you for this useful info!!

[@ChewsToExplore]

Yes, we actually did not chose a circuit. We chose the option that was like 1,2,3,4 and just went on circuit 2. It all depends on how early you are planning to book. Machu Picchu tickets sell out months in advance

[@sueheyhey]

I'm planning my trip to Perú and came across your videos! They are great! Thanks!!!

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thank you for watching my videos and for your lovely comment! It means a lot to me that I could be of help. Enjoy your trip to Perú!

I saw in one of your videos a lilac colored back pack, looked water proof. It's it and what brand? Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@skypodimages]

Great video. Can you fly your drone in Aguas Calientes?

[@ChewsToExplore]

No you cannot fly in sacred valley it is a no fly zone

[@jodiblanchard5804]

Hey guys- did yall book your flight from Lima to Cusco once you got there or beforehand

[@ChewsToExplore]

We booked everything months before getting there!

[@tulipsunny6334]

🌺WHAT ..no walking sticks😳

[@ChewsToExplore]

Nope no walking sticks because people have destroyed the ruins

[@musclegirl805]

Do you recommend tennis shoes or hiking shoes?

[@lucasrioux9320]

Hey amazing video. Im having trouble finding flights for as cheap as the ones you got. Did you buy them while you were in Peru or in advance while you planned the trip

[@ChewsToExplore]

We bought them back at home in advance

[@nmmk9134]

Did you booked the ticket to cusco from lima while there our before leaving usa?

[@ChewsToExplore]

We got it months before we traveled

[@alexmetehh1497]

U have no idea the feeling of seeing Machupichu is truly awe . It can make u cry

[@ChewsToExplore]

Completely agree!

[@kennethcarr2449]

The Spanish would have destroyed it, if they known about it.

[@ChewsToExplore]

I Completely agree with all of that

[@averythompson5838]

This is so insightful. Thank you. What time of year did you go and what temperature should I pack for?

[@ChewsToExplore]

So helpful, I’ll save this

[@ChewsToExplore]

Glad you found it helpful thank you

[@friendlydog82]

3:31 is it possible for you to add a compass direction at the corner map you showed?? Because Machu Picchu is actually at Northwest of Cusco!! And for most People live at Northern Hemisphere, just read that map might think Machu Picchu is at Southeast of Cusco.

[@ChewsToExplore]

Thank you for your suggestion! I appreciate your feedback and I'll definitely take it into consideration for future videos. It's important to provide accurate information, so I'll make sure to add a compass direction to the corner map in my next travel guide.

[@nicolehart3316]

My flight from lima to Cusco was $120 CAD for just personal item and I booked 1.5 months out.

[@ChewsToExplore]

Sorry our flight was a lot cheaper than that. It depnds on the time of the year and airline as well.

[@denme5]

This is great information. What if I don’t want to hike up. I have a bad ankle that I’m rehabbing so it can get a little tricky for me on steps and uneven payment. Will they allow no guide and only visit the 1st level? Of course I want the great IG photo then I want to exit.

[@ChewsToExplore]

I totally understand your concern about hiking up with a bad ankle. You may be able to visit the first level without a guide, but it's best to check with the park authorities for the most accurate information. Different circuits have different levels of hiking available. Take care of yourself and get that IG-worthy photo!

[@ilybabe17]

I really enjoy the history lessons, trips for saving money and booking and itinerary ideas. I’m hoping to plan a trip to Peru next year and loved this video
