Cusco, a magical place steeped in history, culture and natural beauty, offers a spectacular adventure for families. From the rich history of the Inca Empire to modern activities adapted for all ages, Cusco is a destination that delights children and adults alike. In this extensive blog, we provide you with all the tips you need to make your family experience in Cusco unforgettable.
Choosing when to visit Cusco is crucial, especially when traveling with children. The months of May through September are ideal because it is the dry season, making it easy to explore ancient ruins and participate in outdoor activities without worrying about sudden rains.
Preparing the right luggage is essential. We provide you with a complete list that includes warm clothes for the cold nights, comfortable clothes for the day, trekking shoes, sunscreen, hats, and of course, cameras to capture the magical moments.
Cusco’s altitude can be a challenge, especially for the little ones. We discuss acclimatization techniques, how to arrive a few days before undertaking demanding activities to allow the body to adjust, and recommendations for managing soroche or altitude sickness.
Nutrition plays a key role in acclimatization. We talk about the importance of a diet rich in carbohydrates and plenty of water to keep everyone energized and well hydrated.
Details on how to make a visit to the Historic Center educational and fun, with stops at landmarks such as the Cusco Cathedral and Qoricancha.
Information about museums in Cusco that offer interactive activities for children, such as the Pre-Columbian Art Museum and the Inka Museum, which have areas designed specifically for children’s learning.
How families can enjoy a visit to Sacsayhuaman, which in addition to being an impressive archaeological site, offers ample green areas for picnics and games.
We provide a detailed itinerary for a day trip in the Sacred Valley, including visits to the salt mines of Maras, the village of Chinchero, and activities such as pottery making in local workshops that allow children to create their own souvenirs.
List of restaurants that not only offer children’s menus, but also feature family-friendly environments, play areas and creative menus that appeal to young palates.
A guide to local kid-friendly dishes, including less spicy and more family-friendly options such as grilled chicken, quinoa and traditional desserts that are sure to be a hit.
