Unrelated to the thread, but I'd absolutely love to read about this if you have reports? Its a dream of mine to do a similar thingNo and outside of Chile and Argentina I’ve never seen campers for rent in S America. For me it was part of a several year trip through the neotropics in an old 4x4 van that I converted to a camper myself for the purpose.

MP is reachable by road, I remember seeing Inca Wren at the edge of the car park!
there is a road from aguas calientes to machu picchu (where all the tourist buses go) but this road is not physically connected to the main peruvian road system. As Josh says you need to either get the train from ollantaytambo, walk the inca trail or walk up the train tracks from the opposite direction.MP is reachable by road, I remember seeing Inca Wren at the edge of the car park!
Thanks very much Josh, what an incredible thing to do! I'll peruse the blogAndrew linked to the blog, which was only kept up to date until most of the way through Ecuador. My then partner and I separated at that time and she had been the one to provide more energy and devotion to the blog upkeep. I kept traveling south solo, spending a bit more time in EC, six months in PE, a bit of time in BO, then a full season in Patagonia, and eventually ended up not making it further north than Buenos Aires, where I lived until recently. Unfortunately I didn't document that last year or year and a half of the trip as well as the rest. Was by far though the best adventure of my life and I cannot recommend doing something like that enough!
Instead of waisting your time posting snippets of info on BF, strive for immortality by writing a true tripreport and post it on cloudbirders...Unfortunately I didn't document that last year or year and a half of the trip as well as the rest.
