This makes the Sacred Valley an ideal place to acclimatize before traveling to higher-altitude destinations such as Machu Picchu.

Tips for Altitude Acclimatization:

Stay hydrated and drink coca tea to help your body adjust to the high altitude.
Avoid strenuous activity on your first day to give your body time to acclimate.
Eat light meals and take breaks as needed.

Climate: The Sacred Valley has a mild climate, with warm days and cool nights. Daytime temperatures range from 18°C to 25°C (64°F to 77°F), but temperatures can drop significantly at night. Be sure to pack layers, especially for the evening.
