Contiki Peru Uncovered – Day 11: Cusco

About half of our group decided to visit Rainbow Mountain during our day in Cusco, but I decided to take it easy and go white water rafting instead. When I woke up, I found out that Contiki reposted my Instagram from Machu Picchu so a bunch of people reached out to me to congratulate me on my achievement.

The views from rafting were amazing and the actual journey wasn’t too hard, but still fun as we had 3.5 rapids at some points.

After we got back, we went to a restaurant called Fallen Angel which was recommended to us by the Inca Trek guide. The food was pretty good, but the atmosphere was even better. The tables were bathtubs converted into fish tanks, there was random art on the wall & we even were able to see some of the guest rooms which were even funkier than the restaurant with the open glass bathrooms, bright colors and giant artwork.

A few people decided to go out, but my roommate and I decided to take it easy and get a good night sleep before heading to the Amazon Rainforest the following morning.
