Recommendation:

Acclimatization is necessary in Cusco, one or two days before starting the tour. For a good acclimatization it is necessary to rest as much as possible, eat little, drink plenty of fluids; especially the coca tea that has known healing and digestive properties. Proper acclimatization prevents it from affecting the “soroche” or altitude sickness, which could cause numerous health problems.
