Tips for Traveling With Kids


Machu Picchu is one of the dream destinations for many people as it was for us and fortunately, we can say that we have already visited this wonderful place.

However, something that made us uneasy was the reports of crowds invading the Machu Picchu, which might even be calling into question the integrity of this treasure in the long run. Something that has tended to worsen since Machu Picchu was chosen as one of the 7 wonders of the modern world, which even captivate more  global interest.


Fortunately, the government of Peru, aware of the need to protect the wonder of the world decreed a daily limit of visitors and also a limit of 4 hours in the time of the visit that each person can remain within the space, what makes even more important for you to to acquire your entry ticket in advance, so you do not risk not entering and, you should  think and decide about the time you will want to enter (learn more in our Machu Picchu article: 20 things you should know when planning your visit).

However, even with these changes, made in the search to decrease the number of visitors, there are still a lot of people visiting Machu Picchu daily and,  there are times when you may have great difficulty in getting some quiet time during your visit, and whoever does this kind of travel, for sure wishes to have some does not want to make it always surrounded by other visitors.

Now let's be honest, it will be very difficult to be alone during your visit to Machu Picchu, but there are ways to be more alone or at least less surrounded by other visitors.

When to avoid going to Machu Picchu


Well, there are two months in which you should avoid even going to Machu Picchu, if you want to avoid crowds, it's the July and August. And the question of avoiding these months is because they are the most crowded months to visit Machu Picchu. This is due, among other reasons, to the fact that during these months academic holidays are taking place in many of the western countries, so it is used by many families to visit this destination. Of course, if you only have these months, we recommend that you go, nevertheless, you may have a chance to escape to the biggest crowds, but if you can go in months other than these, the better.

What is the best time of year to visit Machu Picchu?


In our article on: What is the best time of the year to visit Machu Picchu, we talk more about the theme, so we advise you to read to know more information before making your choice but, in a brief way, Machu Picchu will have only two wheater seasons, namely the dry season and the rainy season. The dry season runs from the middle of April until October and the rainy season runs from November to the middle of April.

If your goal is to avoid crowds, the best for you is to visit Machu Picchu in the rainy season, especially between November and the middle of April. However, when it rains in Machu Picchu, it may really rain, and spending the day in Machu Picchu with constant rainfall can make you lose some of the magic of the place and even be dangerous, especially for those who travel with children or, who have reduced mobility, because the place can get muddier and, you will walk on stones that, with the rain, become more slippery.


However, you can also pick up a few days without rain, which also occur, as well as some days when you can only catch rain for short periods of time, so you can still have a very pleasant visit. Do not forget only a question, when you buy your ticket, will do for a specific period of time on a given day, so you can not have the possibility to change your date if it rains immensely on the day of your visit.

Visiting in the dry season is more likely to result in better weather conditions during your visit but is also more likely to have larger crowds at your side. In this way, we can advise you, in addition to avoiding the months of July and August, to try to organize your trip closer to the beginning and end of the dry season, especially from the middle of April, May, and September, especially the second fortnight, and the month of October.

In these months, in addition to being more likely to avoid crowds, you are even more likely to catch up on good weather, and even if you can catch rainfall, chances are it will be small rainy moments that will not disturb your visit.

What is the best time of day to visit Machu Picchu?


We have also addressed this issue, so we also advise you to read our article on the best time of day to visit Machu Picchu. In order to avoid crowds, the secret is very simple, the periods during of the middle of the day are the ones to avoid so, plan your visit so that you can enter Machu Picchu at the time of opening, or closer to the end of the day.


So, since everything in Machu Picchu requires planning if you want to go in one of these periods, you will have to organize your trip to get there at one of these times, especially if you want to be one of the first visitors to Machu Picchu.

As mentioned before, you will have to buy your ticket in advance (click here to buy your ticket to Machu Picchu on the official website of the Peruvian government) and when you buy it, you should choose the entrance at 6am in the morning (when the doors open) or, more for the afternoon period, namely entering at 12 o'clock if you choose to stay near the end of the day.

Once you choose, you will need to organize yourself at the level of where to stay before your visit. Many people take the option of doing a day trip from Cusco to Machu Picchu, which, in our opinion, is extremely tiring and will lead to being in Machu Picchu in the hours of the highest flood, that is, in the middle of the day.

So, if you want to visit Machu Picchu at the beginning of the day, prepare yourself, that the enclosure opens at 6am and you will have to take the first bus that goes up from Aguas Calientes to Machu Picchu, which departs at 05:30. The point is that the first bus, or rather the first three buses, depart at 5:30 a.m. and each takes about 30 passengers, so to be one of the first to make this trip of about 20 minutes from Aguas Calientes to Machu Picchu, you will have to be in the queue well before 5:30, to secure his place. We recommend that to be sure of your place, that it is at least until 4:30 in the queue, being that in high season, it may be even earlier.



If you decide to take the route from Aguas Calientes to Machu Picchu on foot, you will have to reserve at least about 1h30 for the walk.

If the decision is to go by bus, we advise you to buy the bus tickets the day before, as you can learn more by reading our Machu Picchu article, 20things you should know when planning your visit.

As there is no train that will allow you to get to Aguas Calientes so early, you should make the trip to Aguas Calientes the day before and stay the night before in that locality.

If you choose to visit Machu Picchu in the afternoon, this no longer obliges you to stay in Aguas Calientes the previous day, you can stay in Cusco (which makes the day very tiring) or opt for another location, such as Ollantaytambo, for a most relaxed day (see here our article: Cusco or Ollantaytambo: What is the best place to stay before your visit to Mach Picchu and the Sacred Valley of the Incas?).


However, when booking your train schedule, please be careful about your return, as you will need to book a train that departs more at night if you do not stay in Aguas Calientes.

Conclusions


If you are reading this post, it is because you most likely dream of visiting Machu Picchu and maybe are even planning your visit. But as a result of being such a wonderful attraction, more and more people want to visit it, so from all over the world, there are people planning their visit every year.


Therefore, it is not at all possible to have Machu Picchu just for us, as we have seen in dozens of photographs, and the truth is that many photographs are taken with Machu Picchu stuffed with tourists. However, there are ways to seek to visit Machu Picchu by avoiding the floods or at least that the floods are not so great.

So, the solution is to ally the best months mentioned above, with the best times. We recommend the end of April and May, as well as the end of September and October, and also the beginning or the end of the days. However, something that is not much referred to, is that Machu Picchu is generally less populated in the late afternoon than early in the morning, especially from 4 pm, moments when we feel we had the best time on our visit to Machu Picchu.

We really hope that our ideas help you to prepare for your visit and if you are planning your trip to Machu Picchu, we always do our reservations with booking, they are our partners and its with them that we get the best deals. You can look for the best deals by clicking here, it won't cost you any money and, it helps us to support our blog.

Ollantaytambo will most likely be a must stop on your trip to Machu Picchu. It is from here that the trains depart towards Aguas Calientes, the gateway to Machu Picchu. Ollantaytambo is a wonderful land that we invite a lot to visit and where we made our base to visit Machu Picchu (you can know more about the reasons for our choice in our article: Ollantaytambo or Cusco, what is the best place to stay before your visit to Machu Picchu).

Being a must stop, you can just pass through Ollantaytambo to catch the train to Aguas Calientes, or visit on a tourist tour or, as we recommend and did, stay in Ollantaytambo and get to know this fantastic village.
  

How to get from Cusco to Ollantaytambo?


Regardless of the reasons that will lead you to go through Ollantaytambo, one of the questions you are likely to confront, as happened to us, is like going from Cusco to Ollantaytambo. This is because, as you will probably arrive by plane to Cusco, you will have to take the route to Ollantaytambo and then visit Machu Picchu.


Let's talk about the different options to go from Cusco to Ollantaytambo

1- Go from Cusco to Ollantaytambo by Train


This is an option that exists but, in our opinion, it is probably the least advised. In addition to being a probably more expensive option, it also requires that you move from Cusco (or Cusco Airport) to the village of Poroy, which is about a 40-minute drive away, so you will have to deal with this trip, which will probably be heald by taxi.


Being this the most expensive and, not so fast as other options can be, lets us pass to the next option.

2- Go from Cusco to Ollantaytambo by Taxi


Another option, probably the most comfortable, will be to go by taxi. The taxi has the advantage of taking it from its original point to its final destination, without any worries about luggage. We personally used this means of transportation upon our arrival at Cusco airport. As we chose to stay in Ollantaytambo during the first days in the Cusco area (you can know more about the reasons that led us to choose to stay first in Ollantaytambo than in Cusco by clicking here).

Probably the biggest problem associated with this choice concerns the price as it is not the cheapest option. In our case, we were able to make the trip from Cusco airport to our hotel in Ollantaytambo for $ 37 USD, about 120 soles.

To do this course you can pre-book before your trip, which is what we did, using Taxidatum's online services, which we recommend for the good service we had during our trip to Peru, you can consult others and online services and compare prices, including Cuscolocalfriend and Cuscotransfers.

It is also very easy to get taxis either outside the airport or in the city of Cusco. However, do not forget, that taxis in Peru do not have a meter, so be sure to negotiate the price before getting into the taxi, and only after you have agreed the amount to pay, you must enter and begin your journey.

3- Go from Cusco to Ollantaytambo by Van (Colectivo)


This is probably the cheapest option and for those who travel from the center of Cusco to Ollantaytambo it is a very viable option and also a way of exploring and getting to know the local way of life as it is also the means of transportation used by locals. In our case, we used Ollantaytambo towards Cusco and, for the price of 10 soles people (sometimes they can ask for something more, so it is important to negotiate if the value is higher than 10 soles).


It is possible to carry luggage but be prepared that it will probably be stored in the top of the van and the ride is not as comfortable as a taxi but it is a great experience that we recommend and with very affordable prices.

However, if you wish to make this trip, you can not do it directly from the airport of Cusco, but only in the center of the city, namely at Calle Pavitos, which you can see below in Google Maps.


Regarding your final destination, it will be close to the Ollantaytambo train station, from where you can directly take the train to Machu Picchu or, if you decide to stay in Ollantaytambo, you can walk to the center of the locality, which is very small and easily accessible.

Buses depart very often, from early to late at night, there is no timetable, nor is it possible to book. The idea is to arrive and, as they manage to fill the collective, it departs towards its destination.

To return from Ollantaytambo to Cusco, you just have to catch the bus in the same place, next to the train station, at the end of the Avenida Ferrocarril, as you can see in Google Maps below.


4- Go from Cusco to Ollantaytambo by Tour of the Sacred Valley of the Incas


One of the most used options is to go from Cusco to Ollantaytambo through the different tours offered by the Sacred Valley of the Incas. How to do it then?

One of the greatest options to get to know the Sacred Valley of the Incas is to do it through Tours (you can learn more about the Sacred Valley of the Incas and how to know it through our post by clicking here).



These tours pass through various destinations, such as Pisac, Moray, Maras and, always part of the route, Ollantaytambo. Ollantaytambo is usually the last stop for many of the tours that depart from Cusco and what many people do and it is possible to combine with most of the tour operators is to do your entire tour and, at the last stop, Ollantaytambo, stay in that destination, leaving to make the return to Cusco.

In this way, instead of spending money on a trip, for those who are first staying in Cusco and want to tour the Sacred Valley, this can be a good chance to do this route. However, for the return to Cusco, you can use any of the alternatives that we mentioned previously.

Conclusions


The route Cusco - Ollantaytambo will most likely be something that you will have to accomplish and organize yourself to do. As we mentioned in an earlier post (click here to find out more about), we even recommend Ollantaytambo as the first place to stay when landing in Cusco. Now you have several options to perform this course, which tends to take about 1h30 when done directly.

Now the reasons for choice will have to be directly linked to your interests. For example, in our case, as we went directly from Cusco airport to Ollantaytambo, trying to avoid the consequences of altitude sickness (see here how to prevent and deal with the consequences of altitude sickness), we sought a little comfort for this stage and, so we went directly by taxi to our hotel in Ollantaytambo. The financial issue is always very important for us, which we always try to save the most to be able to travel more. However, to go from collective to Ollantaytambo, we would have to go first to Cusco, and only from there pick Ollantaytambo. It was perhaps the most comfortable and in this situation and as we were going with our son we felt it was worth the extra financial investment.


However, on the way back to Cusco and as we were going to stay in the center of town, we decided to return as a group and we also highly recommend this option because it is extremely cheap and, although less comfortable, it is nothing that is not pleasant and we liked it much of the experience.

Another option that we did not use because we did not stay in Cusco as a base to explore the Sacred Valley, but you can use it, is to reserve for the last day of your stay in Cusco to do the tour of the Sacred Valley of the Incas (if it is your option to do the tour) and, deal with the agency for you to stay in Ollantaytambo. Please, do not forget to take the time to visit Ollantaytambo, because it's a really wonderful place.

Lastly, as previously mentioned, we do not recommend the train because it is not truly compensatory, neither financially nor in terms of time, so we leave this as the last alternative.

There are also the options connected to the tour operators that make the desired transfers, among them some of the contacts that we left above but, here what is necessary is always to make the comparison of prices, something that is always better to do personally than online, because tend to be more expensive and, when in conjunction with more people, you can get more affordable prices than by taxi.

We really hope that our ideas help you to prepare for your visit and if you are planning your trip to Machu Picchu, we always do our reservations with booking, they are our partners and its with them that we get the best deals. You can look for the best deals by clicking here, it won't cost you any money and, it helps us to support our blog.

When preparing your trip to Peru, with great probability, you will have as the biggest goal for your trip to visit Machu Picchu. Also with great probability, he will arrive in Peru through the international airport of Lima and, after Lima, will go to Cusco, also most likely by plane.

Cusco is a wonderful city and you are sure to love to get to know Machu Picchu. However, between Cusco and Machu Picchu, there is a whole set of treasures that, who visit Machu Picchu cannot, in any way, stop exploring, we speak of the Sacred Valley of the Incas.

What is the Sacred Valley of the Incas?


Between the city of Cusco and Machu Picchu, in the middle of the Andes, there is a huge valley that is crossed by the Urubamba River and, therefore, also known as the Urubamba River Valley. And this river and valley had enormous importance in the Inca Empire that, despite having spread through a territory that today belongs to 5 different countries had its epicenter in the city of Cusco and, in the Sacred Valley of the Incas.


In addition to the religious importance attributed by the Incas to the Urubamba River, the quality of the valley's land around them was of vital importance throughout the Inca Empire and, as you drive along its banks, you will be able to still see the enormous production that on the present days still takes place in its lands.

In the time of the Inca empire, there was an intensive production of different species of maize and potatoes, as well as various fruits and vegetables, and the so famous coca, which are planted in the fertile and flat land near the riverbed, as well as on terraces designed for agricultural production. Something impressive to ascertain, and that those who visit the Sacred Valley will certainly not miss the possibility of seeing in Moray, it is the existence of "laboratories" of agricultural experiments and studies, in which the Incas sought to find out which products fit best under certain conditions, in order to maximize their production.

Upon arriving in Cusco, we promise that you will fall in love with the city, but what you will notice is that during the colonization period by the Spanish conquistadores, enormous efforts were made to erase the vestiges of what was the capital of the Inca Empire. Although there are still innumerable signs of the Inca past, easily identifiable when strolling through the streets of the city, it is clear that the impact of the Spanish occupation was marked and changed the image of the city very much, something that did not happen in Machu Picchu, which managed to keep outside the occupation and preserve its identity.

However, although Incas have been occupied by armies led by Spain, along the Sacred Valley there are still vestiges of several Inca settlements that are an extraordinary way to get in touch with a people that, despite having dominated by a period not too long, perhaps a little more than 100 years, has left a huge and important mark in several countries of South America.

In this way, as you probably have to book a few days in Cusco area before your trip to Machu Picchu, so you have the chance to get accustomed to altitude (you can see here how to prevent and deal with altitude sickness symptoms), you will have the perfect opportunity to explore the Sacred Valley of the Incas and we are obliged to say, this ends up being a great way to organize your trip, which then culminates with the arrival at Machu Picchu.

Another advantage of spending a few days exploring the Sacred Valley of the Incas is its height, which is about 2800 meters above sea level, less than 600 meters from Cusco (you can find out more about it on our post: Cusco or Ollantaytambo).

What to see in the Sacred Valley


The Sacred Valley has many attractions, which can take a visitor to spend weeks exploring them, but unfortunately for most, as was our case, we didn't have so many days, so it was necessary to make a choice of what we do not really want to lose.


That is what we have done, and it is on this choice that we want to share, that is, on what, in our opinion, can not be lost. And, what you can not miss, in the Sacred Valley is:

- Ruins and Pisac Market;
- Ollantaytambo;
- Chinchero;
- Salinas of Maras;
- Moray.



Now let's talk a little bit about each of our choices.

Ruins and Pisac Market


Several are the markets that you can find in the different villages of the Sacred Valley, but the most famous is the Pisac Market. If you go to the weekend, and especially on Sunday, you will see how huge this market is, but even during the remaining days of the week it is still extremely good to visit it, being one of the best places to enjoy and buy handmade products locations. With its center in the Plaza de Armas de Pisac, the market tends to extend in all directions along the streets of the city and, this is one of the attractions that can not miss in the Sacred Valley of the Incas.


But in our opinion, more than the market, we must visit the Pisac Ruins, which at its top are an impressive image and a great way to prepare for what Machu Picchu will give you.

Ollantaytambo


Ollantaytambo or Ollanta, as it is also affectionately known, is a small village about 100 km from Cusco, which we loved and in which we made our base to explore the Sacred Valley of the Incas and to visit Machu Picchu (if you want know more about why we chose Ollantaytambo for our first stop in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, click here).

This small village is like an outdoor museum and, after Machu Picchu, it will be the biggest Inca attraction you will ever see. Waking along Ollanta you will feel the Inca heritage at your feet, especially as you climb its huge and magnificently preserved terraces. Believe me when we say that Ollantaytambo deserves much more attention than what is given in a short walk involved in a tour through the Sacred Valley one day.

Chinchero


The town of Chinchero is not one of the most visited by visitors but, what also does not lack are reasons of interest. It begins soon by its height, about 3760 meters above sea level, the highest place we have been in our entire journey through Peru.


Although the village and the Inca ruins you will find are not the most impressive of your trip, they do not fail to merit your visit, but what impressed us most was being able to watch how local women work textiles and, how cleverly and of artisan form they obtain the colors that are so characteristic of the clothing used by the Peruvian people. If you are fortunate enough to visit Chinchero on a Sunday, be sure to take advantage of your typical market, where trade is still held today through the exchange of goods.

Salineras of Maras


The Salineras of Maras do not have anything directly related to the Inca Empire but are also located in the Sacred Valley of the Incas and are absolutely mandatory.

Only the walkthrough Mount Salkantay that will take you to the salt mines will make you win your day, but prepare to arrive at a scenario that, with great probability, you have seen in your life in photographs, because your scenery is perfect for wonderful photographs. At more than 3000 meters high, there is a mine of salt, where salt literally rises from the mountain and man has for centuries ingeniously managed to find a way to separate the salt from the water that flows.


And this way of capturing its salt was through the hundreds of small pools, shaped on terraces along the mountain that, as the sun does its work and evaporates the water, creates a wonderful scenery of colors that, in the distance, resembles a hive of various colors. Of course, we can always try to explain in words but the pictures explain better and, of course, you already know that you can not miss visiting it during your stay in the Sacred Valley of the Incas.

Moray


Not far from the Salinas de Maras in Moray, there's something that looks like a sci-fi movie. It is in Moray that you will find 3 amphitheaters of concentric shapes on terraces, dug in the middle of hills.


Its shape is complex, perfect and wonderfully balanced and is thought to serve as a kind of laboratory where the Incas sought to study the most favorable conditions for the exploitation of their plants. How did it work? Each terrace had its own differentiated conditions, a kind of microclimate that, due to its altitude, which also resulted in conditions of temperature, humidity, exposure to the sun, among other conditions, differentiated and, what was sought to discover the conditions ideal for each plant to then recreate these conditions on a large scale.

Of course, there is still no certainty as to whether this would be the goal since the Incas did not develop the writing process, so it will always be difficult to complete Moray's purpose 100%, but what we can guarantee is that his visit is impressive and, without doubt, one of the experiences that you can not miss in the Sacred Valley of the Incas.

How to see the Sacred Valley?


Well, the possibilities for organizing to see the Sacred Valley are vast. In Cusco, what will not be lacking are alternatives at the level of tour operators that will take you to know all these destinations. You can manage this tour in a small group or in larger groups. If you wish, you can also rent the services of a taxi driver that can take you to any destination you wish but there will not be a guide with you. However, in most of the places to visit there are guides available to help you know, for a certain price, it is always appropriate to be negotiated, both in terms of value and number of participants. Under these circumstances, it may make up for joining other visitors to lower costs.

There is also the possibility to rent a car and make the journey at your own pace. Here you can not count on the services of a guide, but you can also request them at your destination. Unlike Lima, we did not find it difficult to drive in the Sacred Valley of the Incas. However, you always have to be very careful as you will be traveling narrow roads along the mountains and always have extra attention when weather conditions are not the best. With regard to car rental, however, it may not be much cheaper than the prices charged by taxi drivers, so it is not one of the most used forms of locomotion.

Conclusions


Briefly, we must say that you can not in any way visit Machu Picchu without spending some time of your trip to visit the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Many people, with little time of travel, try to know the maximum of the Sacred Valley of the Incas in a day and, it is possible but, not the ideal, in our opinion. The Sacred Valley of the Incas has so much to offer that we even recommend that at least two days should be reserved to meet you or even more if you can. We guarantee that you will not regret any second destined to explore this wonderful area and to know all the Inca heritage scattered throughout the Sacred Valley.

In this article we have just mentioned the main attractions to visit in the Sacred Valley of the Incas but, as we mentioned at the beginning, this is just our opinion. Of course, in addition to the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, you should also book your travel time to visit Cusco and some of the nearby attractions, namely Tambomachay, Puca Pucara, Q'enko and Sacsayhuaman, which will also give you a very good job your day.

Do not forget that, in order to enter most of the attractions that we mention, you will need the Boleto Turístico, which, although more expensive, compensates to buy what gives to the general circuit (1, 2, 3), which is priced at 130 Nuevos soles for adults (about 35 euros, 40 dollars), and 70 Nuevos soles for students (about 22 euros, 19 dollars), 2019 prices.

We really hope that our ideas help you to prepare for your visit and if you are planning your trip to Machu Picchu, we always do our reservations with booking, they are our partners and its with them that we get the best deals.
