Is there anything cheaper than $48 USD each way? We're willing to go somewhat sketchy (we're electing to walk 2-3 hours to Aguas Calientes from the hydroelectric station near Santa Maria instead of paying the $70 train), but nothing really out there. Any recommendations? Also, while I'm here, is it worth paying an extra $8 to go VIP on the bus? The seats look significantly better, so I'm going to answer that question for myself unless anyone has input: http://www.cruzdelsur.com.pe/suite.htm Number of Users: 1 | Number of Posts: 1 | ||||||
