Cusco, Peru Travel Hacking and Highlights

Are you excited for this Cusco, Peru travel hacking and highlights?

Hi Day #6 of a favorite ????  travel image challenge. However, I decided to add a twist to the challenge, and I wanted to mention travel hacking strategies and highlights!

Like some of you, ✈ I wished I was better at travel hacking, and I decided to do some research to look for sweet spots, so I can reference it for future travel!

So, #SAVE this post if you want travel hacking strategies about ???????? Cusco, Peru.

Just for background, ???? I have been nominated by @jesslynn4686 for the 10 day favorite travel image challenge.

Every day ???? I will post an image from my travel pictures that I love, without explanation, and nominate somebody to take the challenge.

That’s ???? days. 10 travel photos. 10 nominations. 0 explanations.
I will nominate another person every day.

Anyways, now moving on to the travel hacking strategies and highlights!

Here’s are the 5 highlights of things to do

1) Machupicchu
2) Saqsaywaman
3) Qorikancha
4) Q’enco Archaeological
5) Moray

Hotels: JW Marriott El Convento. Use @chase and @americanexpress to transfer points to @marriottbonvoy.


Hostel: Use the @capitalone purchase eraser to wipe out the charge.

Airline: To get to Cusco you need to fly to Lima. Use either @americanair or @united (1:1 transfer on @chase) to fly to Lima.

Since LATAM left Oneworld, and is now Skyteam use @marriottbonvoy to transfer points from Lima to Cusco to fly LATAM.


Thank you @10xtravelblog and @thepointsguy for the research!
