Any advice for a first timer at Machu Picchu?
Hey everyone! I’m finally planning my dream trip to Machu Picchu and I’m realizing there’s way more to it than I expected. I’ve been watching videos and reading blogs, but now I feel like I have information overload.
For those of you who’ve done it, what do you wish you knew before you went? Did you hike the Inca Trail, Salkantay, or just take the train? Was it worth doing the multi-day trek, or would you do it differently if you went again?
Also, any advice on acclimating to the altitude, what gear is actually worth bringing, and anything you wish you hadn’t packed? I’m reasonably active but definitely not an experienced backpacker, so I’m trying to be realistic.
Would also love to hear any “don’t make the same mistake I did” stories. Thanks in advance!
