Tips
What To Bring
What to Bring
Here is what you should take with you for this 5 day trip to Machu Picchu
- Original Passport: Before leaving your hotel be sure to bring your original passport, note that if you do not bring it you will not be able to visit Machu Picchu. The passport must be the same one you sent us to buy the Machu Picchu tickets.
- Clothing: The weather in the Sacred Valley is very enjoyable, but it does not mean that it does not rain at all. That’ s why it is important to always carry a pack of T-shirts and add warmth with long-sleeved clothing and a fleece jacket.
- Footwear: Comfortable walking shoes or sneakers with good traction are perfect for hiking in and around the Inca archaeological complexes in the Sacred Valley.
- Sun protection: Do not forget a quality sunscreen. Long-sleeved shirts and pants are recommended for better protection from the sun. Bring a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses and sunscreen. The sun is quite intense depending on the place you are visting.
- Rainy season: For those viting the Sacred Valley from Ollantaytambo during the rainy season, pack a waterproof jacket or a travel-size umbrella or plastic ponchos. Plastic ponchos are available to buy in Cusco and the Sacred Valley area.
- Bottled water: Staying hydrated is important for preventing altitude sickness. At Come See Peru, we provide a free water bottle to all our clients for all our tours of the Sacred Valley from Ollantaytambo.
- Money: Do not forget to carry some cash in Peruvian currency.
Also have some coins and small notes in your pockets since often smaller shops, kiosks or vendors don’t have enough change. - Snacks: Energy bars, candies, cookies, etc (you can also buy fresh fruits at one of the villages’ markets).
- Insect repellent: There are mosquitoes in the secred valley. We recommend opting for non-aerosol options to be more eco-friendly. Bands, patches and lotions are less likely to affect the people around you.
- Toilet paper: Some restrooms do not provide toilet paper or antibacterial hand gel.
- Personal first-aid kit: Our tour guides are forbidden to give any madication to tourits. These rules come from the government that does not allow the tour guide to use pills due to different names and components of drugs by country. For this reason, we always advise taking a basic first aid kit, pills for most common problems.

Of course! Our 5 day tour allows you to visit these 2 iconic attractions plus many others such as the Sacred Valley of the Incas tour.
The Rainbow Mountain and Machu Picchu are quite far from each other, which makes it impossible to visit in 1 or 2 days. Both places are at different elevations as well as geographically different.
To do the 1 day excursion to the Rainbow Mountain it is necessary to be fully acclimatized to the altitude so we recommend beginning at Machu Picchu and ending with the hike to the Rainbow Mountain. Our itinerary is perfect for those looking for both, the Inca history and outdoor adventure.
Visiting Rainbow Mountain is totally worth it! If you are visiting Cusco, take a trip on the last day of your stay to one of the most spectacular attractions in the Peruvian Andes.
You will need to spend two or three days to acclimate in Cusco before you head to Vinicunca because you’ll reach a little over 5,200 masl.
