FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Does the itinerary include all admissions? Yes. It includes entrance fees to archaeological sites (Huaca Pucllana, Ollantaytambo, Pinkuylluna), cultural attractions (Amano Museum, Seminario Ceramics), community experiences (Umasbamba and Potato Park), natural sanctuaries (Ballestas Islands, Tambopata Reserve), Machu Picchu, and the train and local bus tickets specified in the program. It also includes domestic airfare.
What is the most intense part of the trip? Hiking along the trails of the Amazon, the journey to Lake Sandoval, and the tours of the steps of Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu are the most active activities, although they are done at a very comfortable family pace.
Is it necessary to acclimatize beforehand? The itinerary has been strategically structured to promote gradual acclimatization. It begins at sea level (Lima and Paracas) and in the low altitude of the Amazon, before ascending to the Sacred Valley (lower altitude than the city of Cusco), which significantly reduces the risk of altitude sickness.
Is there cell phone signal? Reliably available in Lima, Paracas, Urubamba, Ollantaytambo, and Cusco. Signal will be limited, intermittent, or nonexistent while navigating the Ballestas Islands, in the heart of the Amazon, and in high Andean communities such as the Potato Park.
Can it be done all year round? Yes. The experience operates year-round. The dry season (May to October) offers sunny days in the Andes and less rain in the rainforest. The rainy season (November to April) showcases the intensely green Andean landscapes and the Amazonian rivers with higher water levels, making navigation easier.
