Lovely video Jeremy and Ally. Some great sights.

@alejandrog.5076 Год назад

I made an effort to watch your whole Peru video collection (the first leg of your nomad journey) and when watching, sometimes I was thinking "Gosh, they are either the kind of tourists you don't wanna see in your country -those who don't even make an effort to learn some basics in the local language- or the kind that hopefully will learn a lot from this experience". Things that bothered me were some stereotypical condescending thoughts ("I've never thought I'd find organic products or almond milk in this country" or "I can't believe bandwidth in this city in the middle of Peru is better than in Beverly Hills"... I mean, what were you expecting?) and some entitled boarding problematic comments ("llama smell", I don't know what does it mean when that was said in Lima , "it's a first, I'm not the tallest woman anymore" or "people look at me because I'm the only one here with blue eyes"). Of course I know your comments aren't mean spirited but we all should be careful when making statements like those. I'm still annoyed that there were some people trying to take advantage of you (a common situation in every touristic place in the world) and hopefully the rest of your journey will be better (in so many ways). Also, some effort to provide the right information is a must when creating content like this so future travelers have more accurate info.

Thanks for taking the time to write and also for watching! We love feedback and try to produce videos from our perspective that could be fun, informative, and helpful. We are trying to share our experience in real time so others can hopefully get something meaningful out of it if not entertaining. We’re not try to offend anyone. We do self filter a lot, however sometimes our not fully refined self comes out.

I am planning to travel soon, and your videos are so helpful. Great Job both of you :)

Before you go to Machu Picchu there's many things to see or do close to Cuzco city, very close there you can find the Fortaleza of Sacsayhuman, churches, Museums, the Inca temple of Qorikancha, free-market, like (Chinchero) all kinds of foods for vegetarian or non vegetarian if you want to eat paying cheap there's the San Pedro Market, then you can continue to the Incas Valley, Moray, Maras, Pisac, Ollantaytambo and many more to see around. In Peru always ask for a reduction in the price when you buy clothes or any kind of souvenirs (una rebaja por favor), Till next time 👍

@JeremyandAlly 2 года назад

Awesome! We did a bunch of those things but will definitely visit again!

@alfonsovaldez9034 2 года назад

@luciananicole510 2 года назад

You can also visit in Cusco Waqrapukara, Qeswachaka, Pikillacta and outside of Cusco the Nazca lines that cover an area of almost 1000 square kilometers

@JeremyandAlly 2 года назад

Noted for next go around. Thank you for the suggestions. Love the day trips and new ideas.

@celdur4635 2 года назад

I'm happy for your guy's attitude towards the good and specially the bad. I didn't know Uber drivers did that in Cuzco, please report them with 1 star and a comment, we need to filter out all the bad drivers from Cusco!

@JeremyandAlly 2 года назад

Thank you, we generally try to report things we feel could actually help the next person. Our video is one way for us to do this. :)

@@johnandannastravels6258 if you can stay at Antigua Casona son blas you will absolutely love it. Ally and I talk about that place all the time. We have a video on this hotel. Or, novatel is much larger and close to everything, it’s a little older but location is awesome.

Brilliant this.. We are there in May. We're spending 2 nights in Ollantaytambo. How long would you spend in Cusco? We're not doing the mountain.

@JeremyandAlly 5 месяцев назад

We loved cusco! I would definitely spend 2 days minimum. We stayed at Antigua casona son blas . It was amazing

@wanderdutts4584 5 месяцев назад

@@JeremyandAlly we are planning 5 days. I have MS and struggle with fatigue and walking some days so it'll give a day in case I struggle one day. Yeah, I've looked and it's fully booked. The Sonesta and Novotel look nice. What dates did you travel here?

@JeremyandAlly 5 месяцев назад

@@wanderdutts4584 perfect! Take it easy on the first day and take some extra O2 if you need it. We stayed at the Novotel also, great location! Have fun

@avashayes9248 Год назад

What month were you there?

@wavechamber Год назад

does Cusco rain everyday in Nov?

@JeremyandAlly Год назад

No idea!

@warrendourond7236 Год назад

No… while the rainy season starts in November and runs until February… the season consists of several large down pours, 3-4 in a month, and then a few multi day stretches of wet weather. While this might feel extreme to the Andean people, whose environment is usually very arid, it wouldn’t seem like much rainfall for most people. However during these big down pour events, because of the mountainous terrain, you can expect some flash flooding and landslides. In 2010 we were caught in Aguas Calientes by a big storm that held us hostage several days. That would have been in February.

@GlobeTrotterOtter Год назад

Good video. Lots of relevant information. However, your allusion that the budget experience is “less than” the 4 star premium experience is really not accurate. Hostels and budget options are very safe in Peru in general especially in tourist areas. Being haggled for more money by locals is normal - you make more in a week than most of these people make in several months. And if you go somewhere that doesn’t have vegan and gluten-free options, etc please just appreciate the experience for what it is and be gracious you have the opportunity to travel at all. Good video 👍
