The Sacred Valley and Cusco are at a very high altitude. It’s best to take it slow at the beginning and get acclimated. Our retreat center sits at 9,500 feet above sea level, and Cusco at 11,300 feet above sea level. So this proposed extra day is meant to replace the second day to ensure you don’t have altitude sickness and can really enjoy your trip without getting sick.
