"From April 1, we hope to receive millions of tourists as we used to," he said noting the progress made towards the rehabilitation of the railway line by the concessionaire operating the route.
Perez said the Vilcanota River’s flow, the cause of damage, has decreased significantly and has gotten back to normal for this time of year, enabling authorities to resume reconstruction works.
He also highlighted the response to the campaign “Cusco Pone”, which offers a round trip plane ticket to the Andean city of Cusco for 49 dollars, and promotes accommodation packages for three or four-star hotels for up to 70 soles.
The campaign 'Cusco Pone' (Cusco Rocks) was launched on Thursday through a joint effort between authorities and tourist operators in Lima and Cusco, by offering special prices in flight tickets and some hotels.
At least 8,000 visitors have visited Cusco so far. The campaign received response not only from Limeans, but also from tourists coming from Trujillo and Arequipa, especially workers of the public sector
