Sadly this was an absolute write off of a day – spent the entire day in bed with nausea and vomiting. I’m supposed to be starting the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu in two days time so emailed the travel agent to enquire about joining a different group a few days later. Apparently this isn’t an option as they can’t move the date of my ticket for Machu Picchu. I can, however, do a shortened trek which would start a day later and still reach Machu Picchu on the same day. Or even skip the trek entirely and just do a 2-day trip by train to join the group in Aguas Calientes.
I still, obviously, would prefer to do the entire trek but will have to see how I feel tomorrow.
Picture of the foyer of my hotel as that’s about as far as I went today!
