I have been to Machu Picchu many times and each was a breath taking experience. Suggest you stay in Cuzco a few days to acclimate to the altitude as Cuzco is 11,000 feet above sea level,many fun filled days to spend in Cuzco,the market place above Cuzco is Pisac I believe its on a tuesday,fun place, don't miss Sayhcsehuman right outside of Cuzco,its omly a taxi ride away,Highly reccomend the entire country from Iquitos to Puno enjoy, and don't forget to eat the local ceviche. ...
