An Inca site still little visited, Choquequirao is considered a second Machu Picchu.

My suggestion

Go accompanied by a local guide, who will transport your belongings on a mule as well as being in charge of supplies.

An Inca site lying between Cusco and Abancay and often referred to as "Machu Pichu's sister city".

My suggestion

The usual way to get here is via a three to four day trek, though the more intrepid have the option of extending the walk as far as Machu Picchu, which makes for a simply superb nine-day hike.
