We will be staying at the HIlton property for 3 nights before the trek and at the SPG property the night before we return.

What should we do while in Cusco? i assume we will take it rather easy on the 11th. while my buddy is coming from Denver, I'm coming from sea level. I don't want to push it too much that first day. But, this is a bit of a bucket list trip and I want to get as much in as I can. So, fire away with your ideas...including thoughts on our hotel choices.

Thanks!!!
Whatever you do take altitude pills beforehand. I thought I was going to die and I'm very fit (which apparently doesn't factor in). You can take walking tours around the old city, your hotel can arrange and it's worth doing
