WHAT IS THE MOST INTENSE PART OF THE TRIP?
Hiking along jungle trails in the Amazon, the excursion to Lake Sandoval, and walking the stone steps of Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu are the most active experiences, though all are conducted at a comfortable, family-friendly pace.
IS IT NECESSARY TO ACCLIMATIZE BEFOREHAND?
No. The route is strategically structured for a gradual adaptation, beginning at sea level in Lima and Paracas and within the low elevation of the Amazon before ascending to the Sacred Valley, which sits at a lower altitude than Cusco, to significantly minimize any risk of altitude sickness.
WILL I HAVE MOBILE AND INTERNET COVERAGE?
Reliable service is available in Lima, Paracas, Urubamba, Ollantaytambo, and Cusco. Coverage becomes limited, intermittent, or unavailable while navigating the Ballestas Islands, deep within the Amazon, and across high Andean communities like the Potato Park.
CAN THIS JOURNEY BE ENJOYED YEAR-ROUND?
Yes. The experience operates throughout the year. The dry season (May to October) brings clear, sunny days in the Andes and less rainfall in the rainforest, while the rainy season (November to April) showcases lush, vibrant green Andean valleys and higher water levels in Amazonian rivers, which facilitates smooth navigation.
