“It was fantastic trip.It was also a new experience - I plan my next trip with African trails to West Africa.”

Services/travel affected include the trains to Machu Picchu, which are not currently running due to damage to the rails, hikes to Machu Picchu are also suspended or not advised.

Transportation to Lima via Abancay has been suspended, and some areas of the Sacred Valley (the road to Pisaq) are also unpassable though alternate routes have been opened.

Flooding had been reported on the road out of Cusco at Urcos heading towards the Puno direction. However, we´re told that travel to and from Puno and Arequipa is still possible.

Within the city of Cusco, services are in normal operation (with exception of flights suspended or delayed during heavy rains). Mudslides have been experienced in some of the steeper, surrounding hills.

Please note that flooding is common during the rainy season and that this adverse weather will not affect trips planned for later in the year. Source
