Good night, /trv/. I am trying to plan a trip to Peru this year.

I spent a couple months there and did the typical circuit.

* Cusco, the sacred valley, Macchu Picchu are not your typical tourist traps. They're legitimately really awesome to wander around. Cusco is great for backpacker nightlife if you're into getting drink and dancing, but the stories about it being easy to get laid with locals are overblown. Go to kokopelli (something like that) hostel. Look into the "jungle trek" instead of the big macchu picchu trek.

* Lima sucks but the local girls are the only fuckable ones in Peru, and they're easy. Use Tinder, and get an AirBnB in Miraflores near Parque Kennedy. I had to stay there for three weeks while I waited on something, and by the end I had a rotation of 5 girls going. But none were really hot or exciting.

* Arequipa looks cool but don't plan longer than 1-2 nights, there's nothing exciting there.

* Skip lake titicaca, it sucks, it's a tourist trap, the nearby city is terrible, and the altitude will get to you.

* Go to the Huaraz and do hiking. I didn't, but people raved about it.

* Go to Iquitos and do ayahuasca at a center called Nihue Rao. You're on 4chan, you're fucked up enough that it's going to help you. It's nowhere near as terrifying as people make it out to be, especially at Nihue Rao where they're focused on healing.

Oh, and Huacachina is cool for one night max. Arrive the first night, have some drinks, then do sandboarding/etc the next afternoon, and leave that night from the nearby town.

Thanks for the tips. I am still not sure how long I am staying there, probably about 2 weeks. Definetely want to go to Machu Picchu, but also want to visit other cities in the country.

No more brotips?

Going for 2 weeks in March. Doing the Jungle trail, Arequipa, Colca Canyon and Cusco, not spending much time in Lima. Am i doing it right?

if you're coming to Peru you should try one of the ayahuasca retriets.

I hear the porters are very friendly.
