In case you are renewing your passport or changing your name, go ahead and send us your old passport information to secure your permit, and we can change it when you get your new passport number or updated your name for a fee of $25 USD per person.  We must have a copy of your old and new passport to make the change.

If you do not wish to pay this fee you will need to bring both passports to Peru with you.  You can enter Peru with your new passport but you will need to show both passports, old and new to be to enter into Machu Picchu or the train.  If you do not have both you will not be allowed to enter into Machu Picchu and train.

The weather is very unpredictable and it’s difficult to foresee.  We recommend you dress in layers as it will be easier to adjust to the quickly changing weather.

Absolutely! All tours and treks provide door to door service. Included in our packages is dropping you off at your hotel on the return from your trek or tour. If you have booked your hotel in the Sacred Valley like Ollantaytambo or Urubamba, we will drop you there too!
If you spend the night at Ollantaytambo before the trek, we will pick you up there.

In general, if you exercise regularly and spend a couple of days in Cusco or the Sacred Valley, you will be able to acclimate normally. It usually takes the body between 24 hours to 2 days.

The recommended remedies for altitude sickness are: hydration, coca tea and oxygen. Our guides all carry oxygen and are trained to treat you for Altitude Sickness. We offer the Cusco City  or Sacred Valley Tours that you can book while you are acclimating to the altitude.  Check out our Day Tours on our Home Page.

Of course, you are free to tip more or less as you feel, depending on your perception of the quality and the length of your tour.
