Peru Travel Vlog 2021

Traveling for the very first time to South America and we exploring the beautiful and adventurous country of Peru! This trip was far more than what we expected and gave us some amazing memories that we will never forget. My favorite had to be visiting Machu Picchu at sunrise it was so tranquil and beautiful.

Hola, que tal?, como van?, Los mejores y más cordiales Saludos desde puente piedra, lima, Perú, ojalá que puedas venir nuevamente en algún momento a mi país y que disfrutes mucho de todo por aquí, con toda la familia y los amigos posibles, felicidades por tus vídeos..

[@annaanna1627]

Did you get your hat before or on your trip? I wonder if I need to bring one or just buy a new one :)

[@araceliontiveros2806]

Hello from California I am taking my family and my dad next month to Cusco. Are there a lot of tourist in the area? Do you recommend buying Machu Picchu tickets in advance or can I buty them as soon as I arrive over there. Not sure what to do. If you can please help me. Thanks for this informative video.

[@natalielever3429]

I booked everything myself online before arriving in Peru but when I was in Peru I saw many Peru travel offices that could possibly help with booking everything.

[@basedpatriotLT]

Compliance combo - diaper and shield :)

[@sujeyrodriguez7692]

Great video… it inspired me and husband to move our trip up from next year to this year… few questions I have for you about the outfits you wore during the trip if you don’t mind sharing. I Read your blog about the clothes you brought which is a great help😀… (that is one of my concerns about traveling to Peru I don’t want to overthink the outfits and over pack.. and not have the right clothing for the trip if you know what I mean) I noticed in you vlog that you used a cross bag for your days in Lima… which I plan I doing.. and you wore hiking boots for the hiking days. The day of Machu Picchu You wore a poncho and leggings with hiking boots… correct? and did you have a long sleeve shirt or short sleeve under the poncho? We’re you comfortable with just that? Only reason I ask is because that is an outfit that I would wear on a normal day. Also, where did you get the face shield from?

[@natalielever3429]

Outfit planning was so hard for me too! So I completely understand and I wanted to make sure as well that I didn’t overpack. Best advice is to wear/pack in layers (if going the same time we did which was early last September) I would say having a tiny bag like I did that is a cross body or fanny pack is best and to always remember to keep it where you can see it. The day I went to Machu Picchu since I knew we would hike down I actually wore a sports tank underneath which was a lot of help because I did work up a sweat on that hike and it was actually amazing weather that day and a little warmer! We got our face shields from Amazon! I hope you have a FANTASTIC trip! It’s a beautiful country❤️

[@annonymous498]

Did you feel safe during your stay in Peru ?

[@natalielever3429]

Yes!

[@anag8867]

What‘s the weather like? I thought it was warm this time of the year but I see you are wearing a jacket… I‘m travelling to Lima next week and I don‘t know what to expect because it always looks gloomy..😅

[@natalielever3429]

Hi! So we actually went on this trip early September so it was transitioning at that time from their Winter to Summer so we got a bit of a mix of weather!

[@toeknee438]

Cool video 🇵🇪

[@natalielever3429]

Thank you🥰

[@kitwong3749]

Cute video 👍

[@jonathanfigueroa1035]

Did you ever go to Huaca Pucllana, different museums, Park of the Reserve and the Magic Water circuit, etc ? Make sure browse deep before any trip .

[@natalielever3429]

Hi, didn’t have enough time I wish I did there was so much I wanted to see. Trust me I browsed deep and did lots of research and read lots of blogs and watched almost every Peru travel youtube video!🙌

[@DaljiImara]

How did you guys buy things ? We’re you using debit/USD or did you convert the money ? Also did you need Covid test when flying in and out of Lima to Cusco ?

[@natalielever3429]

Hi! We took out some money before the trip and converted it when we landed… also took out more from the atms at the airport and at pharmacies throughout the trip. Only used our cards at certain restaurants and at our hotels. No test was required when flying within Peru during our travel.

[@tvbrbrasil4743]

Guys, great video, but I have one caveat. the music was so loud that it interfered with the video

[@natalielever3429]

Thanks for the feedback! 👍

[@JorgeGarcia-lb1yo]

Cute video

[@claudiaque2707]

Did you have to COVID PCR test once arrived at Lima ?

[@natalielever3429]

No, only needed a negative test when boarding our flight to Lima

[@myuniqueunicorn]

I went to the website I wish it was printable that way I could take it to the coffee shop with me and read it word for word I don't have time to read it on my laptop or my home computer right now - 🤔

[@kaioceanlove]

How long was the hike to humantay lake?

[@natalielever3429]

I have the tour we used linked which breaks down everything but I can’t really remember!

[@claudiaque2707]

Do have to be vaccinated?

[@natalielever3429]

Hi! The rules are constantly changing (every two weeks) so I can’t say what the requirements are now but when we went you did not have to vaccinated and everyone entering (vaccinated or not) had to show a covid test result before boarding your flight to peru. Once in peru no test was required.

[@anagonzalez8300]

No, you don’t have to be vaccinated. You do need a Covid negative test.

[@JorgeGarcia-lb1yo]
