1 February 2, 2018 MACHU PICCHU WITH KIDS Visiting Machu Picchu with a baby and a toddler seems like a far flung idea to most. The altitude, the hiking, the water and food, how did we manage? These are some of the hundreds of questions I got asked on social media when we visited. It seems there is a lot of confusion about how to get to Machu Picchu with kids. Lets just say we did it the lazy way. We flew from Lima to Cusco, took a taxi to Sacred Valley, and finally took a train to Aguas Calientes where we stayed for three nights. Our hotel was just twenty minutes from the entry to Machu Picchu, so it was very easy and accessible. We are not the sort of tourists that go to typical landmarks and sites. However, I am so glad we made it to Machu Picchu. I have visited 80+ countries and there are very few experiences that I would describe as magical. Everything from the moment of arriving at the Inca Rail Station, and our stay in Aguas Calientes, to the pinnacle moment of seeing Machu Picchu. All I can say is WOW! Some might ask did the kids enjoy it? I can hand on heart say YES! We found the perfect balance of kiddie activities and site seeing. Lets be honest ancient ruins are not that interesting to a 3 year old and a 7 month old. I have written this blog with a lot more information than my usual format. At the end you will see a list of tips and information about planning your trip. But for the more interesting part, this is our play, sleep and eat guide to Machu Picchu with kids. VISITING MACHU PICCHU We got up early on our first morning and aimed for the 7am bus. It only takes 20 minutes from Aguas Calientes. We visited in low season, so everything was less busy than usual. That said, it was a little risky, the weather is very temperamental. However we were in luck, and had a perfect day with blue skies. On entering, there are two routes. The one going up to the left gives the typical and most photographed view, and the one straight ahead is the lower end.
2 We opted to go up before the morning sun got too much with the kids. It was perfect in every single way. There was a refreshing breeze and it felt incredibly nostalgic. You know when you ve seen something so many times, and when you visit it doesn t feel real? It felt like I was dreaming. It had an eery feel, not a bad one. A feeling of grandeur, imposition and perfection! Pictures and descriptive words don t do it justice, we will never forget its beauty. Funnily enough, we were the only ones carrying a baby, and the only ones wearing flip flops! We didn t feel we needed hiking shoes, but I guess if everyone else was wearing them, it should be considered.
3 Esme is only three but she definitely had an appreciation for the beauty of Machu Picchu. She said wow look at that mummy a few times. The obvious situation that really caught her attention was the overtly friendly and lovely alpacas! After our amazing morning we made our way to the front gate, got the Machu Picchu stamp in our passport and jumped back on the bus to Aguas Calientes. EXPLORING AGUAS CALIENTES Aquas Calientes is a small town filled with restaurants, cafes, bars, shops with traditional art, crafts and textiles. We only ate out a couple of times, we were totally spoilt at Sumaq with an amazing breakfast, afternoon tea and dinner! Therefore, only needed lunch a couple of times. Unfortunately Sumaq turned us into such food snobs, that we didn t really enjoy it. Like any tourist hub, there are many people touting on the street, trying to get your business. They promise you lots of extras and it seems like the price of a meal is negotiable. Like any of those situations, the quality of the food is questionable. That said, we loved walking around taking in the stunning views and browsing in the local craft shops.
4 HOTEL ACTIVITES Ordinarily we like to explore by ourselves. We were keen to create a fun situation for our kids to balance out the long journey and site seeing. As we were staying at Sumaq Hotel we found it very easy to do just that! They have the family at heart and are very welcoming of little people. We loved all of the activities they had available, so cleverly designed to embrace the Incan culture, but at the same time entertain and captivate the entire family.
5 STORY TIME In the afternoon, Sumaq Hotel, set the garden room with gorgeous colourful throws on the floor, big cushions and lots of traditional attire. Like hats, musical instruments and dolls. One of the staff told the kids tales of Incan times. They were more interested in all of the toys on the floor, as they are so young, but they really enjoyed the time. The story was interesting and well told by Victor! MINI-CHEF COOKING CLASSES Our daughters favourite activity was the mini-chef cooking class. Along with the in-house chef, she made cookie dough, rolled it out, made it into different shapes. After cooking them, she decorated them with icing and had them nicely packed to take away. It was right on time for afternoon tea, so whilst we had a coffee, we all had a nibble of the cookies.
6 PACHAMANCA TRADITIONS AND CUSTOMS We learnt a lot about Incan traditions and customs during our stay at Sumaq. On our first day, we were invited to a Pachamanca experience, they offer it on request. We were brought to the Garden Room where a traditionally dressed man was awaiting. On the ground there was a hole surround by hot stones. He demonstrated a traditional cooking method. First he layered the hot stones with bundles of fresh herbs. He put perfectly made banana leaf food parcels on top. The preparation was covered with lots of foliage and completely buried with soil. It smoked for a half an hour whilst we sat and tried some traditional grape drinks and ate yummy nibbles. We later ate the ground cooked meal at the restaurant, it was so good! COCOA LEAF READING At Sumaq, they call it an offering to the earth ceremony. It was at 6pm in the evening. It was just getting dark and the Garden Room was glowing with beautiful candles. The Shaman, set the area beautifully. Again with throws and cushions for comfort, there were also many offerings to the earth. There were handfuls of corn, seeds, crystals and leaves. He demonstrated and involved us in preparing an offering to the Pachamanca. It was a very peaceful and relaxing experience. Well, it was until our kids had other ideas of throwing the offerings around.
7
8 Luckily the Shaman was very understanding. He said children and their innocence is the best offering to the Pachamanca. Afterwards, he read our cocoa leaves! He predicted, we would have a third child. I tried not to laugh out loud, whilst I was desperately trying to contain two crazy kiddos. It was a really lovely experience but, given it was witching hour, I would have loved if we could have done it kid free! MASSAGE After all of those amazing classes and activities for the little ones, we were ready for some kid free time. At the spa in Sumaq, they offer lots of different treatments using traditional products and techniques. Travel Mad Dad had a special salt massage and I had a one using heated pouches. The area is tranquil and relaxing with dim lighting and soothing music. It was the perfect escape from the kids to relax. The therapist was so adorable and professional. SLEEP With over 300 Inca ceramic replicas at Sumaq, the beautifully decorated rooms and the breathtaking view, we really felt at the heart of it! We had a perfect room for a family, with two cozy double beds and a single. There was ample room for all four of us. It came equipped with a coffee machine, bottled water and some really luxurious products.
9 Every day they brought little treats to our room in the afternoon. Everything about Sumaq is luxurious! I loved chilling in our room after a day of exploring, soaking up the views of the river, sipping on a coffee, and cuddling up under the duvet.
10 EAT We have been turned into food snobs! We are waiting for somewhere to compare but it just isn t happening! Every meal, every plate was fine dining at its finest! Afternoon treats consisted of cakes, mini burgers, vegetable rolls, coffee and fresh tea. It was my favourite! Whilst Esme loved the choices at breakfast. It had everything from quinoa banana bites to fresh fruits, coffees, pancakes, made to order eggs, shot glasses filled with oats and pureed fruits.
11 We generally ate lunch out but they do have a menu during the day. The evening dinner choices were amazing and featured some very traditional dishes, such as trout ceviche, alpaca and so on. As a vegetarian, they were very accommodating with diet requests. The food was so fresh and portions were the perfect size to fit in three courses. TIPS AND INFO FOR PLANNING A TRIP TO MACHU PICCHU WITH KIDS Flights from Lima to Cusco cost around 6O USD per person if planned in advance. The price quoted online will often be more once you insert your passport details. This is because Peruvians are given a different price and there is a premium for foreign nationals. If you are concerned about the altitude, its best to leave Cusco straight after arriving. You can pick up a taxi outside very easily. We paid 100 soles (approximately 35USD) for a taxi to Sacred Valley where we took the train. Sacred Valley is significantly lower than Cusco. The taxi takes about 1.5 hours. The two rail options are Peru Rail or Inca Rail. Inca has a slightly better baggage allowance, but its also slightly more expensive. We took the regular ticket but there are flash first class experiences. If you are bringing a baby, you have to go to the Inca Rail desk with the passport to prove baby s age thirty minutes in advance of the train leaving. We were told we could have one 8kg bag each for Inca Rail. They have free storage for anything we didn t need at the station. They were very lenient with our allowance when they saw we had two kids and were staying for three days. The train takes around 1.5hrs, its incredibly scenic and beautiful. They give a little snack and a nice drink which will keep the kids busy for a while. You have to buy your ticket to enter the Machu Picchu site in advance. They only allow a certain amount of tickets per day. You can purchase a morning or afternoon ticket on the official governmental website here. It costs 152 soles per adult. Children under 6 go free. Make sure you complete the purchase. They let you reserve for an hour and the seems like its confirmed, but it is not until you have paid. Most hotels offer a collection from the rail station in Aguas Calientes. It might be useful to tell your hotel what time you arrive so they can help you to your destination. When you arrive at Agua Calientes, book your bus ticket to Machu Picchu for the next day. The buses leave from close to the rail station every 15 minutes. We heard the queues in the morning to take the bus from Aguas Calientes are really long. Everyone wants to be there for sunrise. We took the 7:15am bus during low season and we got on straight away. The bus takes twenty minutes winding its way up the mountainous road. You have to bring your passport as proof of identity.
12 There are lots of tour guides hanging around the gate at the ready to take you for a tour. With two kids and wanting to do things at our own pace, we were happy doing it by ourselves. It took us about 2.5hrs to walk around the site, take photos and of course hang out with the alpaca s.
