Things Not to Do in Peru
If you are planning to travel around Peru, you should know that there are some things you should avoid doing if you don't want to get in trouble.
So, getting straight into it, here are 10 Things not to Do in Peru.
.
01 Don't Book the Cheapest Tours
If you're planning on booking a tour, try to choose one with a good guide. They will show you the best places and information you wouldn't have otherwise known. Even if you just want to do some hiking, the guides can show spectacular paths you'll never forget.
02 Don’t be Rude
While occasionally arrogant and sometimes not very self aware, some tourists, also have the irritating habit of speaking to the Spanish-speaking Peruvian locals in English and when obviously not understood, decid to speak louder, as if somehow the'll be better understood, or something. This just comes across as rude. So don't be rude, they're very nice people.
03 Don’t Take Cheap Buses and strange Taxis
Transport accidents are very common in Peru due to careless drivers and poor road conditions. So, if you want to arrive safely to your destination, it will be better to take the bus instead.
04 Don’t try to save on Food
In Peru you can find many fine dishes that you will absolutely enjoy. So don't try to buy just the cheapest food. Try some classic dishes instead, like cuy (guinea pig), you'll only spend a few more bucks but it's well worth it.
05 Don’t Just Go to Machu Picchu
There are more things in Peru than just Machu Picchu. Sure, it's amazing and you must go, but don't limit your trip to just that. The coast or the Peruvian Amazon will amaze you, even the capital deserves a day trip.
06 Don’t forget About Health Concerns
You should avoid drinking tap water and also, don't think your altitude sickness won't be a problem for you because it may be. And, of course, don't forget to receive all the recommended vaccinations before travelling.
07 Don’t forget to Haggle
Peru is a haggling nation, so they expect you to discuss the price with them, especially in touristy markets and souvenir stands. Sometimes you can also haggle with taxi fares because they tend to rise their prices for tourists. Anyway, it's always better to ask their fare first, to avoid surprises.
08 Don’t Take Photos Without Asking
If you want to take a photo of an individual or a small group of people, always ask beforehand. And also, it's important to know that taking pictures of police or military personnel is not the best idea.
09 Don’t Get on Your Nerves With Local Authorities
Many Peruvian police officials are poorly paid, so the acceptance of bribes, is very common. It can be frustrating dealing with them. The process is often very slow. So, just keep calm, and wait for them to finish their routine.
10 Don't trust strangers
Don’t be too quick to trust anyone, especially when approached by a stranger. Sometimes people take advantage of foreign people and get close to you to scam you. So be careful and pay attention to these people.
Where do you want to know what not to do in next?

What to Bring and NOT Bring to Machu Picchu
Welcome to the Peru Travel Podcast! You can subscribe to the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher, Google, or TuneIn, or listen in the media player above. Many people have questions in regards to what they can and cannot bring inside the Machu Picchu complex.
The number one item to bring in to Machu Picchu? Your passport. There is absolutely no way that you will be able to get a ticket to see Machu Picchu without a passport. Be sure to be on the lookout for the Machu Picchu passport stamp once you are there.
Be sure to bring a backpack to hold your hat, sunscreen, snacks, and water. However, take care that the backpack is not too large. There are certain dimensions allowed for your pack inside Machu Picchu, and it isn’t big.
We cover how to all the furry critters and creatures you might see in Machu Picchu including chinchillas.
When you’re in Peru it can rain, especially during the rainy season, so be sure to pack a poncho or rain jacket.
Finally, don’t forget your cash, cuz you ain’t going to the bathroom without a few soles.
Be sure to listen to the end to find out the “interesting” clothing items that you should not wear if you want to get inside.
Be sure to visit us at our homepage or email us at info@cachilife.com for any questions or topics that you want us to cover.
Transcript is available which has been modified for your reading pleasure.
GHOSTS of Machu Picchu
The fog of Machu Picchu is of mystical legend. It is said it caries spirts of the lost Inca. As fog runs over this sacred site, spirits hunt for sleeping victims on its grounds. If the spirit finds someone sleeping it comes up through the ground and carries the person away into the fog. It is said that the only way to protect yourself from the spirits is to sleep on a mirror or reflective foil. Interestingly enough on the Inca trail to Machu Picchu, you can often find locals sleeping on reflective foil to protect themselves from these spirits. Personally I find the fog of Machu Picchu to be very beautiful, but it is interesting to see that some locals still believe in these legends. One interesting fact is that after only 100 years of living here, the Inca's vanished without a trace.

► WHO WE ARE?
We are Gladys and Kenny, we finally made our dreams a reality. In January 2018, we downsized and took the steps to pursue our dream, to travel full time for as long as we can. We rented our house, moved into our attached studio apartment, and continued to travel on a part-time basis until it prepared us for full-time travel. On June 30, 2019, we left to travel the world full-time. The first stop was Bali, Indonesia. It wasn't a simple decision to leave our friends and family. However, you only live once and we didn't want to live with any regrets. We want to document our journey, so we recently did so with vlogs on YouTube and Social Media.
Join us. It's been one crazy ride so far.

Unforgettable Views of Machu Picchu, Peru, 2019
The beauty of Machu Picchu sacred valley with a view from Montana Picchu hills. Machu Picchu's organic and well-planned design facilitated its saving to our days.
An amazing one day adventure to our long-desired destination was worth all the struggles.
TOP TIPS:
1. Visit Machu Picchu in the first hours after the opening or in the afternoon (approx from 6am to 8am or 1pm till closure). The number of tourists at other times won't make you happy.
2. Book one of the mountains surrounding Machu Picchu. Montana Picchu (the one we visited) or Huayna Picchu, it will make a trip SO MUCH BETTER and fulfilled.
3. Visit the Machu Picchu Museum. It has a ton of information that your tour guide might miss.
4. Take a LOT of water, especially if you are climbing one of the mountains.
5. Enjoy the peacefulness and appreciate the history!
