Try to get an accommodation in San Blas. For headaches, try Mate de Coca, helps a lot!

3. Jeroen's Tip on Puno

Puno, Lake Titicaca & Surrounding Region, Peru

Although Puno yet looks like another unfinished city in Peru, it got character. Booming nightlife on Friday and Saturday and during the day you could visit some of the ruins or villages around Puno or go to the Islands on the Lake titicaca.. (floating islands and Isla Taquile are cool and easy to get to either independent or with a tour)

Tingo Maria es una ciudad muy hermosa, puerta de entrada al amazonas peruano, muy cerca de Huanuco.Exelente comida, gente muy amable y con muchos atractivos turisticos como la famosa Cueva de las Pavassi quieren un viaje exitante y aventurero, no dejen de visitar Tingo Maria, y por supuesto busquen un riquisimo brebaje conocido como Coca Souer, los dejara paraditos sobretodo despues de una noche de jolgorio!

5. Jacqueline's Tip on Pucallpa

Visiten la laguna de yarinacocha, hay restaurant ´de comida típica (cecina con tacacho delicioso) hay un hotel sobre la laguna en palafito ¡¡soñado!!

6. Emma's Tip on Nazca

Nazca, Southern Coast, Peru

Nazca Lines are pretty amazing, not as big as you expect, but still amazing. Not too much to do in the touristy town of Nazca other than eat drink and souvenier shop, But you can go sandboarding on the nearby sand dunes. I think it is the Friendly Brothers or a name similar to that, they are in the guidebook and run good deals on both, and if you go with them they let you use the facilities of their hostel for the day. Especially good were you taking an overnight bus in and out. If possible, email them in advance because most flights depart early morning (maybe delayed if waiting for clouds to roll out.)
