all airport transfers are private. all tours listed are in a group. not with the same group of people everyday, just daily group tours. day 03 is private transfer to the bus terminal for tourist quality bus Lima-Paracas. Cusco City Tour and Sacred Valley tours: hotel pickup to join a group tour. We will upgrade you to a private tour of Machu Picchu with our personal guide complimentary.

How many people will be in the group for this tour

If I'm understanding correctly, you are coordinating the trip and booking us on other tours with groups. So for instance, when we travel to the islands, we will with a different group? Do you know how many people may be in that trip?

I'm interested in the Lima, Paracas, Nazca, Cusco, Machu Picchu tour. I understand it's a group tour, correct? Quick question; on day 5, there's a flight Cusco - Lima in the morning. I assume it's NOT included in the package so any suggestion on where to purchase the ticket? And also, for what approximate time - leaving from Cusco, should I purchase it?

The tour package does not include flights, and the flights to Cusco we have practically all day, you can book in the morning. You need to buy your tickets in advance with previous reservation, I do not recommend buying at the airport, you might not find spaces and miss the tours.

  What is the cost of upgrading to airfare to Nazca (Piaco Airport) and the cost for upgrading to all private tours, except for Lima?
- ILE ToursOperator•Written April 2025
  The Pisco-Nazca-Pisco Aerial tour is US$290 per person and saves many hours in the bus. To upgrade to private Cusco City Tour and Private Sacred Valley Tour w/lunch it is only US$180 per person more. A private car from Lima-Paracas-Lima is US$475 more total.

  Can I go to the airport in the morning and buy the ticket to Cusco without any previous reservation? What happens if the flights are all booked up? I don't want to miss a day of my tour. How big is the group?
- ILE ToursOperator•Written March 2022
  You shouldn't buy tickets in the airport but should reserve like you would for any flight. We can help with airfares. No need for you to be searching for flights. Our itinerary simply says flights are not included. We can help with flights. Latam.com is the place to get LIM-CUZ-LIM flights. Yes, very nice group tours are included.
