TRVEL UNIT

1. My travel style & overview of your trip
I want to go to the top tourist destinations to discover the world. The place which I want to go is Machu Picchu in Peru.

This place has long history. I want to visit there by myself because I think my view of the world must be changed. I think it is the best way to go to somewhere by myself when I go to the places that have history and mysterious power.

3. My Hotel
When I am looking for a hotel, these are important points for me in a hotel.
I prefer good value, central Location and clean rooms.
I will choose the hotel which has "great value, plenty of parking, by airport

I will stay at Hotel Torre Dorada from Jul 31 to August 3.
It cost me US$225.
The breakfast is great and the rooms are clean and comfortable. It also near the airport.
Torre Dorada is nearby attractions including the Inca Garcilado de la Vega Stadium and the Santo Domingo Church. It is 5 minutes journey from the train Station to Machu Picchu.
Free transfer to Cusco Airport is available upon advance request. Guests should inform the hotel of their flight details prior to arrival.

4. Sightseeing destinations
I will go to Huayna Picchu because people say "The view of Machu Picchu from the top of this mountain was awesome!" I want to the mysterious view. I think if I climbed Huayna Picchu, this experience will be one of my great experiences. I expect that I can feel power from Machu Picchu.
I also want to go to Llama Path because people say "The trail itself was amazing and I was happy with the planning of the trip." I want the guide to explain about Cusco.

5. Others
I will try to drink Inca kola.
I want to try to eat a meat of an alpaca.

6. Advice for visiting my destination
If you want to climb this place, you don't have to go on rainy season and you should bring trekking shoes.
I think you should try to eat the meat of an alpaca. Unexpectedly, it is said good taste by some people.
The best way to get to the airport is using bus and train.
