I'll be happy to answer any of your questions.
Have you planned the rest of your trip? (besides de 5 day hike).
I recommend spending at least a few days in Lima, its the capital and its where the best dining is. (Peru has really good food).

I know I can go by bus or plane, and that bus takes forever and can be uncomfortable... but how bad is it, and is there any value to the bus ride besides being cheaper? I'm probably willing to fork out the extra 80$ or so for a plane ticket round trip if it's a lot faster and I wouldn't be missing out on anything taking the bus. -What is there to do in Lima? Is it worth dedicating more than 1 or 2 days to exploring it? -What should we do for the remaining 4 or 5 days after the hike? Is it reasonably safe for a few polite white guys to roam the country side with backpacks checking out random cities and taking buses/trains? 1º Lima to Cusco... If you can afford the airfare, I recommend it. The bus is fine if you want to save, but it takes so long, and you dont get GREAT sight seeing or anything on the bus. You would do best to use that time to rest/ see other things. 2º Lima is the capitol, and I think its a fantastic city to live in, but for a short visit, you should see more of the rest of Peru. I DO think you should spend a few days in Lima (2 or 3) but not more, considering you have 11 or so days total. 3º The rest of your trip---- There is A LOT of stuff to do or see in Peru. It depends on what you want to do. I think the best thing to do would be to focus on Cusco (macchu picchu), a couple of days in Lima and maybe ONE other destination for those las few days. Let me give you an idea of some of your best options, and depending on what you want to do ill recommend stuff. You can try traditional medicinal hallucinogens (san pedro or ayahuasca) (some people come to Peru just for this.) You can visit all kinds of ancient ruins and cities (besides Macchu Picchu) You can eat some of the best food in the world (Lima is best for this) If you like nature, Peru has some beautiful and remote natural places to visit, especially in the jungle (being in the tropical jungle was INCREDIBLE for me), but also in the coast (some beautiful beaches). If you want to party, meet people, I would say Cusco or Lima is where you want to spend a few extra days. | ||
