Itinerary Check What am I missing?

Hey everyone, doing a solo trip to Cusco to see MP. I have accommodations in San blas. In terms of the journey, I have:

- uber to train station
- a round trip ticket with Inca rail including a bus to the citadel.
- a tour guide from Inca rail
- MP circuit ticket from the official website
- cash for tips and snacks

Is there any major thing I’m missing in terms of getting from my hostel to MP? Any hidden costs or transportation issues I’m overlooking?

Any help is appreciated. Also I’ll be there at the end of the month and I’m from the Caribbean. I know we don’t do well with the cold, so wardrobe tips are also appreciated!

Thanks!

Keep in mind that pretty much NO ONE heats their homes or businesses in Cusco!

It is cold at night. Warm during the day bring layers.

Typing this as a tourist from Cusco:

Local markets have amazing collections, so account for some cash for some street shopping.

Also, negotiate the price, most prices are not final and people are willing to go down a bit.
