My boy: She is beautiful inside and out. You should put a ring on that! If you haven't already, get yourself together :)
Makes my heart happy to see youngsters like yourselves exploring Peru. It’s definitely a journey!
Your comment really made my day! It means a lot to hear that you enjoy our adventures in Peru.
I went to Peru last month and it was amazing. Beautiful country, gentle, humble people and amazing food. It was unusually hot when I went due to climate change. Laundry service is cheap and fast. Wear comfortable shoes. So many steps to climb. No AC in any ot the hotels. We asked for a fan. A must see country. I didn’t get altitude sickness. Did get stomach virus a few days before leaving. Gargled with tap water. Don’t do it. So glad I went.
Wow, sounds like you had quite the adventure in Peru! From the hot weather to the stomach virus, it definitely sounds like a memorable trip.
So the tap water is not safe?
@@Manifesting_Secret_Sketchbook No it is not. Don't drink the tap water without filtering or boiling it
Can I exchange my money at the airport? Thanks

When you arrive Cuzco, locals give you te , he needs to drink tea the first day. And, then go to Machu Picchu. I suggest to hire a tourism company. I will be easy for him.
@@LibrajmL2023 Thanks so much!
Thank you,very good you look like you two

Felicitaciones chicos, me alegro que hayan disfrutado en Meca de gastronomía del mundo y pais megadiverso esperando que hayan comido como locos el santo grial de la comida mundial, un abrazo desde la cuidad de Pisco, Perú y vulcan pronto con más amigos porque todos tienen derecho a comer rico.

Thank you so much for the support and kind words to our channel. It truly means the world to us!
Appreciate the insights, I have a tour scheduled to go the islands and such that you visited in Lima but now that I know the bus system is efficient, ima save the bread and go that route
Thanks for the support again bro, Next week Ill show you exactly how to do it yourself dont worry. Way easier to save money that way. Almost like $70 per person we saved doing it ourselves
@@ChewsToExplore bet I'll be waiting on it then! I'll gladly save the ~$150
7:16 Wow, a beach front stay for under thirty dollars a night.....Sounds amazing!
Yes truly affordable here! Check out our full video on our channel!
nice video. lots of useful information. Can you recommend a guide for machu picchu
Yes we have lots of details in our Peru Guide chewstoexplore.com/product/explore-peru-travel-guide/
I want to go this year
Thank you for sharing your excitement with us, your enthusiasm is infectious!
I want to go to Lima, like, yesterday
Haha you should! It’s beautiful there, but don’t skip Cuzco too!
Hello from France
nice your travel advice the only slight inconvenience is that each time you give a distance or an altitude I have to meter on pose to convert it into a metric system and if a temperature in Celsius, but it does not matter😀😀
Haha Thanks for watching and supporting our channel. Yes It still annoys me how the united states uses imperial measuring systems when the rest of the world does not. Sorry about that
I remember going from Trujillo to NY and I thought because the sun was out it was hot but it wasn’t I was freezing cold in NY. And we Peruvian don’t dry our hair right after shower so I went out to wait for the train and my hair got frozen, it was funny but I was young so nothing happened to me.
Haha this is amazing story, thank you for that
Wow! We gotta charge a little more! Great video though!
Thank you so much for the support to our channel!
I was aware that they seasons were opposite ours in North America, however I was not aware that there was a difference between Machu Picchu and the town it’s in. Cannot recall the name. Hot is relative, to me 95+ is hot, so if Lima is in the 70s then I consider that good. But it sounds like I will need layers or something for cold nights when I visit. Thanks for that level of detail
Thanks for watching and supporting our channel. We were surprised it being so warm in the winter but its completely different in the moutnains. If you go during the winter the layers are your best friend! Glad we can help you guys with travel
i love peru . my wife and i have gone to peru several times. unfortunately almost evey time people at the airport stole many things from our luggage!
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel!! We are happy you found the video helpful! I am so sorry that happened to you
I really enjoyed you videos, very informative ❤❤❤ where did you get your colourful poncho?
Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you found my videos informative. The colorful poncho is actually a special find that we bought in Ollantaytambo. I love supporting small businesses and showcasing their unique creations!
However, some good stuff after that.😊😊
Glad you found it useful!
Love the video! Wondering if there were great vegetarian options?
There are a lot of vegetarian food options, my wife is a pescatarian and had lots of veggie options here too
peru is amazing . my fave country!
I can completely see why that is!
I’m tired of my dad telling me we should go on a trip to Peru.
Amercian are staggered by the fact the seasons are different in other places in the world.
Thanks for the support to our channel
Good info. I want to go . I'm just concerned about altitude changes
Altitude changes can be tricky, but the view from the top is always worth it!
❤
There are many tour companies. Is it easy to take public transportation? I dont speak spanish at all.
Yes, it is definitely possible to navigate transportation but may be a challenge speaking no Spanish. Many cities have English signage and announcements, and there are also helpful apps and maps available to guide you along the way. If you feel uncomfortable just book a tour as well
Y'all are beautiful ❤
Your comment brightened my day, thank you!
Am here now,i wish i could stay here forever
Haha, wouldn't that be amazing? We could create a UA-cam utopia and never have to leave! But in the meantime, I'll do my best to keep bringing you entertaining videos.
This is so good! What about airplane tickets? What months are inexpensive for airplane tickets?
We went in July and used credit card points for our flights!
In some countries we actually learn geaography, so we don't have to buy clothes once we get to a high elevation semi-arid climate nor are we shocked as we descend into a semi-tropical medium elevation jungle.
Thank you so much, do you guys learn how to spell as well? Because this is the first time I'm seeing geaography as well.
How did you all manage the lack of clean drinking water? Would like to go to Peru this year, but want to plan ahead.
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to us. We had no issue with drinking water while we were there. We bought bottled water there with no issue
Hi there I was just looking your video and it’s great 👍
I have a question
As I was scrolling here for trip to Peru I came across of someone offer trips there for $1900 and that’s not airplane include,
It’s a hiking on the Inca trail to Macchu Picchu…
So if I added the airplane ticket will be like $3000
Is that a reasonable price for It?
Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for the kind words and support to our channel!! We are happy you found the video helpful! I honestly believe it depends on how long your trip is and what it includes. Plane tickets also depends on time of the year and where you are flying from
You guys missed Huaca Pucllana. 😊 It is in The very Center of Miraflores.
Thank you so much for the support to our channel! I definitely will go back to visit next time! Truly appreciate it!
The way she looked at him when he kept talking about food 😂😂
Thanks for noticing that detail in the video, it was a fun moment to capture!
Any recommendations on booking tours
Thank you so much for the support heres our guide with all the tours chewstoexplore.com/product/explore-peru-travel-guide/
