When joining a Cusco City Tour, packing smartly will ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience. Here’s our recommended list:

• Backpack or Daypack – A small, lightweight bag to carry your essentials such as water, sunscreen, snacks, and a camera.
• Comfortable Walking Shoes – Cusco’s steep hills, cobblestone streets, and uneven paths make sturdy walking shoes essential.
• Lightweight, Layered Clothing – Days are usually warm and nights can be chilly. Bring breathable clothing that you can easily layer for changing conditions.
• Sunscreen & Hat – Protect yourself from Cusco’s strong high-altitude sun.
• Reusable Water Bottle – Staying hydrated is crucial, especially at high altitude.
• Snacks – Energy bars, fruit, or nuts are perfect for keeping your energy levels up throughout the day.
• Camera or Smartphone – Capture the stunning architecture, history, and vibrant streets of Cusco.
• Cash – While cards are widely accepted, it’s always handy to carry some cash for small purchases, souvenirs, or tips.
• Personal Medication – Bring any medicines you need, including remedies for altitude sickness if necessary.
• Rain Gear – A light rain jacket or umbrella is recommended, as Cusco can experience showers at any time of year.

Important Note: Cusco is located at high altitude (over 3,300 meters / 11,000 feet). Take it easy on your first day, drink plenty of water, and be mindful of any symptoms of altitude sickness.
