Yampu Tours Approves Of New Machu Picchu Regulations
The Peruvian government has placed new regulations on the entrance to Machu Picchu. Yampu Tours applauds these new regulations as conservation to the ancient ruins.
- (1888PressRelease) August 11, 2011 - Stowe, Vermont - Recently, following UNESCO recommendations, Peruvian authorities have placed restrictions on the visitation of Machu Picchu, the lost Incan ruins. As of July 20th, 2011 no more than 2,500 people daily will be allowed to visit the ruins. While these regulations may confine the amount of visitors to the ruins, they are positive and work to ensure a better experience for visitors for centuries to come.
The new regulations for Machu Picchu will enhance your travel experience. In addition to preserving the ruins for centuries to come, the limit will ensure that your visit is spiritual and enjoyable without being overrun by hoards of tourists. Machu Picchu is often an awakening experience for visitors because of its amazing scenery. Overlooking the Andes is conducive to meditation and personal reflection. Here you will be able to see in the outline of the mountains behind Machu Picchu, what appears to be a face of an ancient Inca looking up into the sky.
Yampu maintains the philosophy that a visit to Machu Picchu should not be generic experience, rather a personal moment different for each client. We want our clients to have ample time at the ruin in order to have the best experience possible. During your stay in Aguas Calientes and your visit to Machu Picchu, Yampu strongly encourages visitors to sit and reflect, write in a journal, make a drawing, or hike the Sun Gate or Huayna Picchu. Yampu also offers the option for clients to visit the ancient ruins with a local Shaman to enhance their visit to the spiritual site.
To ensure your visit to the ruins Yampu encourages clients to book in advance. In no uncertain terms does Yampu Tours advise anyone to visit Machu Picchu without booking tickets to the ruins in advance. Yampu's programs to Machu Picchu all include two days in Aguas Calientes, a village at the foothills of the ruins. The first day includes a guided tour of Machu Picchu.
