โ€œFirst night in cusco we woke up every 2 hours breathing fast and heavily. Heart was racing. Had very wild dreams too. Longest night ever. Other than those things we felt good. Most hotels have oxygen tanks if you feel really ill.โ€

โ€œThat said, we really enjoyed exploring lots of day trips from Cusco and there are lots of day trip companies in the city. Cusco is a cool place to explore in itself with several good restaurants. [...] Four wheeler tours are pretty awesome around Cusco as you take a bus for roughly an hour outside the town and then your four wheel around the beautiful mountainous country side.โ€
