I am currently in the process of a crucial experiment.
Since I would prefer not to end up drowning in a snot-pool of my own making in the temples of Machu Picchu next week, I have decided to test the following theory:
"An effective cure for Pestiferous Cold of Doom is the studied application of several pints of Guinness."
*awaits results*

Sadly, am I doing the train. Not my choice, but I can't argue with my travelling companion (who is footing a significant proportion of the bill).
But apparently we do stay in a village, get up early and get to the city for dawn.
What to do in Cuzco? Top tips gratefully welcomed!

I know the 'village'. It's there to serve the tourism trade, pretty much. Well that is a good compromise though it's still quite a stomp up to MP so you'll get some idea of what it's like to clamber through the foothills of the Andes.
It was Winter Solstice when I went so there were street festival events on constantly, but I hooked up with a local tour company when i was there and went on some organised trips to various temples etc round Cuzco. Sounds v. Saga but you learn shedloads.
Temple in Cuzco is an obvious must. There are some fab cathedrals etc.
My other activities - hmmm... over a guinness sometime, maybe!
Eat a guineapig for me!

Book me in for that Guinness when I come back

Pro What if it doesn't work?
Or are we not supposed to mention that as a hypothetical outcome and just place our trust in the science?

Then I shall try red wine.
A world of alcohol options await my experimentation.

Been to cuzco & machu picchu - is fab beyond fab.
One of my top five happiest memories is having a humming bird fly past my face on the inca trail.
Get there by inca trail. You walk into the city at dawn. there are no crowds. Four days walking at altitudes three times higher than anything in Europe (I seem to remember) but worth every step.
The train is soooooooooo touristy. I spent nearly six weeks in Cuzco, i really never wanted to leave. Oh, am jealous
