PARIWANA BLOG

Cusco is just the beginning of an adventure to see all the great Incan ruins of the Sacred Valley. Pariwana Cusco is a superb place to get you ready, and possibly to team up with other backpackers to head out into the valley. There’s so much to see, and you’ll have to consider time when deciding if stopping in Urubamba is a good idea.

If you’re staying at the Pariwana in Lima, you’ll be happy to learn that you’re already set up for a direct bus line to one of the city’s most magnificent nights out. Step out of the front door, take a left and board whatever bus is yelling “todo Arequipa!” One sol should get you to the gates of the Park of Water.

Probably the best way to describe Lima is "the culinary centre of Latin America". Combining national and international flavours, spices and delicacies to keep its growing culinary reputation high in the air.

From Pariwana Cusco hostel, you’re close to everything in Cusco. It’s really redundant to point that out, because once you get there, you’ll see for yourself that Pariwana’s Meson de las Estrellas is a quaint street connecting to Plaza San Francisco.

From the mountain city of Huanuco, backpackers will find themselves curving around steep roads, eventually arriving in Tingo Maria.

Traveling to Peru should probably entail a visit to Peru’s and one of South America’s most visited sites, Machu Pichu. Cusco lies about 10 hours by road and foot from the bridges that cross the river to the base of the site’s mountain.
