On a whim I decided to go to Peru for a mountain biking trip with Sacred Rides instead of where I intended to go.
I’ve been wanting to do the Peru trip for a while, but it did not feel right before.
I’ll be arriving a few days early to check out the city: Lima. From what I’ve ready most people say to get out of Lima and just go to Cusco.
Then I read that Cusco is mostly a tourist town which immediately tells me to stay away and not make it a major part of my trip. Cusco is on the list anyways as part of the mountain biking itinerary.
Lima will be a major part of my stay. I think 3-5 days total. Not much, but maybe enough experience part of it.
I’m very keen on seeing this city. Cities where people live and work are my thing – real cities, not those catering to tourists.
I’ve started doing some research on things to do in Lima and the list is growing rather quickly.
The things I’m going to focus on are active adventures and food.
