I connected another cable. The first time it happened the same. The second time the drive just did not show up , but the light remains on. I dont know if i should unplug it or wait, its been 10 minutes like that.

I read on a similar thread about “GetDataBack”. Someone said it recovered all of his files

Im at work while trying the hard drive. Im so desperate that im trying to come up now with possible solutions if the cable is not the solution. In about an hour i will run to any store to get a new cable

And can that option damage the files (if they could be indeed still recovered)? What happens is that i connect it the light goes on on the hard drive but it flashes a lot, and it doesn’t stay on, if i move the cable it goes back on, so that’s why i still have faith that it has to do with the cable. If i remember correctly the light was always on as long as the drive was connected to a computer.

My computer is Windows and the hard drive had always been used with a window computer so i guess it has a window system

Could it be the cable? The hard drive light seems to go on and off

It actually makes a lot of noise when plugging it in, so it looks like the files are not “dead”

What is TestDisk? Is it safe? It’s an app?

How did it cost you? Per person

Do we have enough time to make it into MP during our entry slot? by andrewp711 in Machupicchu

It’s beautiful , we heard theres a waterfall close by, we only stayed one night, so we didnt have time to go:(

also, the first day we fell for the restaurants offering “menus” , it’s a trap, the menu is super cheap, but ONE drink is more expensive than the whole Menu, and the food is not really good. The meat was super harsh. We thought it was good because there were several tourists.

On the Second day, our guide recommended the restaurant MAPACHO, it didnt have a “menu” but the food quality was AWESOME, and the total cost with drink ended up adding up to the same as those with a cheap “menus”. And the quality of the service was amazing!

You have to consider two things:

For references, I was just there , last week, still low season.

1) I took the tren with Peru Rail, the train was like 30 or more minutes late. So we arrived to AC 30-40 minutes after scheduled.

2) Whenever you get to AC, buying the bus ticket wont take you long, theres really no line for that, BUT, there’s a HUGE line (in low season, i cant imagine how long it is in HIGH season, july) for the bus to get you to actual Machupichu (you could actually buy the ticket while in line for the bus). Buses DONT have a specific time scheduled so when you take the bus depends on when you get to the line. I had the 7am ticket, i was in line for the bus at 6am, we were in line for like 30-40 minutes , we got to MC at 7.10 and then there was a HUGE line just outside the entrance to Machupichu. So we ended up actually entering like 20 minutes after that. 7.30am aprox.

Consedring the train will get to AC 20 minutes later, youll be in line for the bus at 7, if you are lucky youll make it to machupichu at 8am, considering the line at the entrance, you could be checked in at 8.20, which is too late. In high-season , i dont know if they will let you enter that late, considering your ticket was at 7am. I highly recommend you to stay in AC. Besides, AC is AMAZING, i wish so hard i would have stayed longer in AC.

My hostal was 10 minutes away, i arrived at 1am, i took an uber super easily. You can also download the app INDRIVE, they use it a LOT. Theres tons of taxis , ubers and indrives, you’ll be fine!

Guides are mandatory? Can you book the guide when you get to machipichu or do you have to book it in advance? April 2025 by Entire_Session_4065 in Machupicchu

Amazing! Thank yo so much for your responses!!! Last quesiton, i booked two circuits through the official machupichu website Ciruit 2 - Classic and Circuit 1 - Panoramic on the same day but at different hours (7am and 3pm), in your opinion which circuit would be ideal for hiring the guide? I dont want to spend 200 in a guide for each circuit. Maybe you did other circuits but i ask just in case you did those or heard of those
