    Machu Picchu with Spirit Tours. Mom was from Peru. Visited several times with mom in my youth. Mostly Miraflores, but also Barranco, Callao. Never made it to Machu Picchu. Very excited!

    I'm of Peruvian descent, I understand you might be trying to pronounce Machu Picchu correctly but its actually pronounced (MA-CHU PI-CHU) or (MA-CHEW PI-CHEW). I hope this helps! :)

  • @stevesinger4066

    Did you have any issues with baggage & carry-on for that LIM to CUZ flight? I was looking at tickets and it seems like you could only have a personal item on those short flights so I am assuming that my carry on from the big flight from LAX to Lima becomes a checked bag that costs extra for those shorter flights within Peru? Maybe that is specific to an airline, like LATAM.

    • @hopscotchtheglobe
      @hopscotchtheglobe  2 місяці тому +1

      Nope it was totally fine. I had my carry on with me the entire way.

    Will my carry on work for Latam Airlines? overall: 15''L x 9''W x 21.2''H (38.6 x 22.8 x 53.8 cm)

    • @hopscotchtheglobe
      @hopscotchtheglobe  6 днів тому +1

      It's best to look on the airlines website to see. I've never used a carry on that stands more than 21'' and I've never been refused on the MANY airlines I've traveled on. If you fly on low budget airlines that typically travel shorter distances, they sometimes want you to check your carry on. To avoid this, I would recommend the Nomad Lane Bento Bag which fits everything I typically put in my carry on but its considered a personal item, not carry on, so you'll never be refused.

    Great video but the info given about Lima at 1:21 is incorrect, Lima is at sea level (150 meters above sea approx)

    • @hopscotchtheglobe
      @hopscotchtheglobe  Місяць тому

      You're totally right. I said that wrong. I def meant to say about 150 feet and about 400 ft at the highest point (Plaza del Armas). Thanks for pointing that out! Basically my point was for Cuzco, you want to spend a couple of days getting used to the altitude and with Lima you don't

      Thats how you pronounce it! I learned this while at Machu Picchu from the local guides. Sorry to tell you, you've most likely been saying it wrong the whole time...I was too. I did a UA-cam short about it.
