Machu Picchu Panorama Hello and welcome to my latest trip report. This one takes us back in time to this past summer. To be exact, the dates of July 2 through July 9, 2012. During this time period my mother and I took a trip of a lifetime to Peru. I hope you all enjoy this report as it did take me quite a bit of time to go through these pictures. I'm also trying out a bit of a different layout to this report. I will be splitting it up by days, however, I won't be including the usual arrival at one airport, departure from another, etc, as I'm veering towards more of a photo report with this one. So sit back, relax and enjoy! Days/Features Breakdown Day 1 - Flights to Lima from Tampa through Atlanta. Day 2 - Flight to Cusco from Lima. Day 3 - Cusco city tour and surrounding areas. Day 4 - Sacred Valley of the Incas tour. Day 5 - Train to Machu Picchu and Machu Picchu. Day 6 - Huayna Picchu and Machu Picchu. Day 7/8 - Flights back to Tampa via Lima, Fort Lauderdale and Atlanta. Day 1 - Flights to Lima Day 1 pictures will include the flights to Lima and pertaining information along with some brief descriptions. http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/9789/photoaiz.jpg Delta Air Lines Flight #2091 Tampa, FL (TPA) - Atlanta, GA (ATL) Equipment - 757-200 Seat Assignment - 1A, First Class, Window Departure Time - 1:29PM Arrival Time - 2:47PM Flying Time - 1 hour 18 minutes Departure Gate - E62 Arrival Gate - B29 Aircraft Registration - N668DN Status - On Time Date - July 2, 2012 Our flights out to Lima included one to Atlanta then continuing onto Lima. Luckily, we got upgrades on both legs of the trip putting us in First and Business class cabins. I gotta say, the difference between Delta's older J product and their newer one (as seen in the 747) are astounding. The old ones aboard the 767's are like comparing Y to J... http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/4364/dsc04323o.jpg Our DL 752 to Atlanta. http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/2967/dsc04324xr.jpg Boarding gate E62 for Atlanta. http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/210/dsc04325jm.jpg Looking back at Airside E. http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/4614/dsc04328e.jpg Climbing into the clouds. http://img19.imageshack.us/img19/8270/dsc04329ws.jpg Lake Tarpon (near where I live). http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/3290/dsc04330v.jpg Descending into the Atlanta area. http://img827.imageshack.us/img827/4273/dsc04331g.jpg Welcome to Atlanta! http://img20.imageshack.us/img20/2857/dsc04334t.jpg Looking at an Atlanta concourse. http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/2841/dsc04335h.jpg Our flight to Lima on the departures board. http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/5301/dsc04340du.jpg The new F concourse in Atlanta. http://img194.imageshack.us/img194/3320/dsc04336p.jpg Departure area near the gate. http://img39.imageshack.us/img39/9789/photoaiz.jpg Delta Air Lines Flight #151 Atlanta, GA (ATL) - Lima, Peru (LIM) Equipment - 767-300ER Seat Assignment - 1E, Business Elite, Aisle Departure Time - 5:19PM Arrival Time - 10:52PM Flying Time - 6 hours 33 minutes Departure Gate - E30 Arrival Gate - 17 Aircraft Registration - N152DL Status - On Time Date - July 2, 2012 http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/9439/dsc04338l.jpg Gate E30 for Lima, Peru. http://img836.imageshack.us/img836/4158/dsc04339f.jpg The 763ER we were on for Lima. http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/6856/dsc04342fw.jpg Immigration papers. http://img525.imageshack.us/img525/7559/dsc04345yn.jpg The appetizer. The meals provided were excellent. I can't remember the exact names of the dishes so if anyone has any information on these then let me know! During the flight I watched a few movies on my laptop. I gotta say, it didn't feel like seven hours. http://img706.imageshack.us/img706/250/dsc04347f.jpg Passing back over Tampa. |

After arriving at the Lima airport we were escorted to the Hotel Britania Miraflores where we'd be staying the night. The flight to Cusco was the following morning at 8AM so lets just say, there wasn't much time for sleeping. Needless to say, we were both excited and nervous about the next couple days to follow. Day 2 - Flight to Cusco Day 2 includes our flight over to Cusco. The rest of the day was used to relax and adapt to the altitude change. This gave us time to experience some Peruvian cuisine and get a feeling for Cusco. http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/7752/dsc04372b.jpg Outside the Lima Airport. http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/462/dsc04374v.jpg Inside LIM.

I think I expected too much though. Seats were assigned, but after boarding people were in our seat so we sat in other seats and ended up getting yelled at and told to move since we were in other peoples seats. We then proceeded to stand in the aisle in confusion because now we had no seats... They continued to yell at us until they finally got someone that spoke English to help us. They finally figured our that the people in our seats weren't even suppose to be on the flight, they were suppose to be on the one an hour later. Needless to say, we ended up in our assigned seats. The flight itself was quite exciting, we had some great views of the Andes. However, it was very hard to get pictures due to the wing. One thing I didn't like though was that they packed that plane 3-3 with very little legroom, so for someone like myself at 6 foot, it was very uncomfortable. After a short hour or so inflight we landed in the highlands city of Cusco. http://img801.imageshack.us/img801/3451/dsc04373q.jpg The two Star Peru Bae-146's sitting on the tarmac. http://img843.imageshack.us/img843/9279/dsc04375a.jpg Boarding gate for Cusco. http://img687.imageshack.us/img687/3805/dsc04376ab.jpg Our plane. http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/522/dsc04379m.jpg View from one of the seats we were kicked from. http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/1407/dsc04380mde.jpg View on takeoff. http://img266.imageshack.us/img266/3636/dsc04382bp.jpg View over the Andes. http://img803.imageshack.us/img803/9923/dsc04383y.jpg The meal.

I believe (IIRC) it was beef with some potatoes. Day 2 - Cusco City Tour and Surroundings Day 2 was the day we did the city tour and the surrounding areas. The first destination of the tour was La Plaza de Armas, where the two main churches are located. Due to respect I didn't take any pictures inside the church we toured, but I will say, it was beyond belief. Everything was gold plated (or silver) and in perfect condition. The second destination was the Korikancha which is where the Spaniards built over an Incan Temple. Afterwards, we visited the ruins of Sacsayhuaman. That had to be my favorite part of the day as it was astonishing how large these rocks were they moved up there. Following Sacsayhuaman we moved onto Qenko, then Tambomachay. On the way back to the hotel our group stopped at an alpaca factory where the store owners described and showed us the differences between real alpaca products and fake. Overall, this was an extremely busy day. http://img829.imageshack.us/img829/5871/dsc04432t.jpg The Korikancha. http://img688.imageshack.us/img688/879/dsc04447qe.jpg One of the churches. http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/2919/dsc04448s.jpg Women with goats.

Day 4 - Sacred Valley of the Incas Today would be the tour of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The tour would begin early in the morning (around 5AM) and go through about 7PM. The first stop on the tour was an alpaca farm out in the mountains. At the farm they showed us how the hide is weaved, cleaned and colored. Following the farm would be the Pisaq Market. The market is world famous and still practice bartering. I chose to walk around, visit the ruins and do some quick shopping. After the market, it was time for lunch. The small restaurant we visited was located in an awesome locations. It was right on the river with a huge garden in the back with wild llamas and chickens roaming around. The next and final scheduled stop on the tour was the town of Ollantaytambo. During our stop we walked up the entire ruin and were given details about what we were seeing. By this time it was about 4PM so we needed to make our way back to Cusco. Since we were making good time we decided to stop in Chincerro for another demonstation on how the alpaca fur is weaved. We finally arrived back in Cusco at around 7/8PM. We quickly had dinner and went to bed as the next day, our trek to Machu Picchu, would begin very early. http://img838.imageshack.us/img838/4156/dsc04587h.jpg An alpaca. http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/7389/dsc04594cq.jpg Demonstrating how the hyde is colored. http://img526.imageshack.us/img526/1082/dsc04597c.jpg And how it's weaved... http://img651.imageshack.us/img651/8828/dsc04602b.jpg An astonishing view of the Sacred Valley. http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/3845/dsc04611hz.jpg Thought this was a necessary picture. http://img685.imageshack.us/img685/7280/dsc04612y.jpg A street in Pisaq. http://img826.imageshack.us/img826/4558/dsc04618q.jpg The Pisaq ruins. http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/4747/dsc04620j.jpg The famous Pisaq Market. http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/1999/dsc04621x.jpg The stang I bought the hats I now have at. |

Cuy (not as a whole) and a Pisco Sour. http://img689.imageshack.us/img689/6345/dsc04721l.jpg Our room in Cusco. Day 5 - Machu Picchu Today would be the day we travelled here for. We'd be visiting Machu Picchu. In order to get there one must take a four hour train ride from Cusco to Aguas Calientes then transfer to a 30 minute bus ride up the side of a mountain to the ruins. The train left at 6AM so that got us there by 10:30AM. After checking into our hotel we got on the bus and headed up to the ruins. The first time you see the ruins you are left in awe. The view from up there is so extraordinary that I have no words to describe it. We began with a guided tour around the main attractions on the ruins. After the guided tour we were allowed to roam freely around the ruins. A couple hours later we headed back down to Aguas Calientes to get some food and prepare for the long day tomorrow. http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/9048/dsc04723z.jpg The train station in Poroy (Cusco). |

View from our room. Day 6 - Huyana Picchu and Machu Picchu The day began very early as we wanted to get to the top of Machu Picchu before sunrise. Unfortunately the weather wasn't very good so it wasn't good for pictures. I had a reservation to climb Huyana Picchu though at 7AM. Any of you planning to go to Machu Picchu, do this. Don't listen to people that say its not worth it because it is. The view from up there is something else. I doubt anything I do in my life will be more crazy than that though because the stairs to get up there are ridiculous. After I got down I walked around for some pictures on Machu Picchu. Our train left for Cusco at 5PM out of Aguas Calientes putting us back in Cusco by 9PM. We had to proceed to pack up and prepare for our long trip home. http://img832.imageshack.us/img832/9232/dsc04909y.jpg I told myself I'd get a picture next to a llama before I left. I succeeded. http://img402.imageshack.us/img402/9730/dsc04920sw.jpg The map for Huyana Picchu. http://img594.imageshack.us/img594/3079/dsc04924g.jpg The stairs...

Day 7 and 8 - Flights back to Tampa The flights back home were... interesting to say the least. We started with a 1PM flight back to Lima, the last Star Peru flight of the day. We then had a very long layover in Lima as the flight was leaving around 11PM. After eating multiple times and walking around it was time for our flight to Atlanta to board. We ended up boarding about 15 minutes late, the beginning of the end. The captain announced there would be about a one hour delay due to engine problems so I reclined the seat and passed out. I ended up waking up three hours later, at about 3AM, as we were pushing back. I was curious why we left late, but happy we left so I went back to bed. As I woke up I was surprised with the announcement "Ladies and gentlemen, we are now beginning our initial descent into Fort Lauderdale." What!? Well, apparently the crew chose to fly to the US landing in FLL and switching crews then continuing onto Atlanta, instead of canceling in Lima. In the end it worked out and we got to Atlanta and made a connection for our flight to Tampa. http://img338.imageshack.us/img338/3331/dsc05116nf.jpg Check in for Star Peru at Cusco. http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/5527/dsc05117s.jpg Headed into the terminal.

Well guys, that's it. Hope you enjoyed the report. I'll have some others up in the near future but for now, enjoy and thanks for reading! |
Wow, those are really wonderful photos! My wife and I will go to Peru in the first half of September. This is an excellent introduction. Thanks so much for posting this.
A few questions about your trip: 1. Given the high altitude, did you find yourselves very winded in walking around Cusco? Did the altitude limit what you felt you could do there? 2. If so, did the coca tea help much? 3. What were your favorite and least favorite places to visit in the Sacred Valley? 4. Same question for Cusco itself: favorite and least favorite? 5. That climb up to Huyana Piccu does indeed look steep! About how long would you say it took you to climb to the top? And at about what pace were you going compared to most other folks - slow, average or fast? Thanks for any information you can provide! |

And at about what pace were you going compared to most other folks - slow, average or fast? Thanks for any information you can provide! 2. Honestly, I don't think it did. Locals swear by it but I noticed nothing. 3. I'd say my favorite was Ollantaytambo. It was the first place we actually saw ruins at. Lots of hiking up and down as well. 4. Cusco is great. My favorite part was Sacsayhuaman, its just unbelievable. The city itself is fairly small so walking around you can find lots of things to do. 5. The climb was indeed very steep, and at many times there's nothing to hold onto. If you're afraid of heights, don't go. I made it up in 48 minutes (I timed it) and was the 3rd of maybe 100 or so people to get up there so I'd say I was going fairly fast. The majority of people take about 1.5 or 2 hours to get up. Hoep this helps you. If you have any questions or anything before you go just PM me! |
That's great info. Thanks, Chief! I'll pm if I have more questions.
Happy trails! |
Wow, wonderful photos. Thank you for sharing them!! It looks like you had a great trip.

I heard they control how many people can visit Macu Pichu daily.
How do you book for this problem? Thanks. |

How do you book for this problem? Thanks. As reminder, Wayna Picchu tickets cannot be bought separately, they can only be bought with MP entrance. Unlike MP, Wayna Picchu is sold out almost daily, buy your WP tickets at least a couple of weeks in advance! |
