Packing List

Cusco, Pisaq and the Sacred Valley are warm in the day and cold at night. The sun is extremely bright and hot due to the high altitude and proximity to the equator, but the minute it sets or is cloudy it is chilly. Layers are the best solution. Polar fleece is great! Anything casual and comfortable is recommended.

We suggest bringing:

• t-shirts, short and long sleeve
• sweaters - can be purchased in the market
• warm jacket
• pants and shorts or skirts
• sunhat
• sunblock
• sunglasses
• warm socks for evening
• warm hat
• comfortable walking shoes
• insect repellant for Machu Picchu
• personal toiletries
• personal medications (including altitude
• sickness medicine and personal choice of diarrhea remedy)
• camera and film
• a day pack
• raingear if traveling from October through May
