Peru is currently the world's kitchen; you come for the ruins but stay for the tiradito. Don't just rush to Machu Picchu—spend three days in the Sacred Valley first to let your lungs adjust to the thin Andean air. It’s a physical journey as much as a cultural one, so pack layers and an appetite for more than just potatoes.

You step off the plane in Cusco and the air immediately feels different—thin, crisp, and smelling faintly of eucalyptus and woodsmoke. Your heart beats a little faster, a constant reminder that you’re 3,400 metres above the sea. Peru is a country of vertical extremes. In Lima, the 'garúa' mist clings to the cliffs of Miraflores while you eat the best ceviche of your life at a table booked three months in advance. Then, you’re in the Andes, where the scale of Incan stonework makes modern engineering look like child's play.
The reality of travel here involves serious logistics. You will spend a lot of time on winding mountain roads or luxury trains, watching the landscape shift from high-altitude scrub to lush cloud forest. The altitude isn't a joke; it will wind you on a simple flight of stairs, and the coca tea offered in hotel lobbies is a necessity, not a novelty. But the reward is a sunrise at Machu Picchu that actually lives up to the hype.
Skip the day trips from Cusco. Instead, base yourself in the Sacred Valley for a few nights to acclimatise properly before hitting the high ruins. It’s warmer, lower, and significantly more peaceful. Best visited from May to September when the skies are Andean blue and the rain stays away.
