Acclimatize before you go
Cusco sits around 3,400 m; spend a day or two at lower effort to reduce altitude effects and avoid heavy exertion the first evening.
Bring warm layers
Nighttime temperatures drop quickly—pack a windproof jacket and a warm mid-layer even if the day felt mild.
Wear sturdy shoes
Cobblestone streets and uneven Inca steps make ankle-supporting footwear important for comfortable walking after dark.
Carry small bills and identification
Some museum entrances, tips, or small vendors work best with cash; keep ID for bookings and entry to cultural sites.
Sturdy walking shoes
Provides traction on cobbles and comfort over uneven historic streets.
Layered clothing (windproof jacket + mid-layer)
Night temperatures fall quickly; layers let you adapt without cutting the tour short.
Reusable water bottle
Hydration eases altitude effects—refill where available rather than buying many plastic bottles.
Compact headlamp or flashlight
Useful for steep steps, alleyways and reading menus without relying solely on street lighting.
