  Tina
  Traveler•Written June 2022
  Right now we are planning for September 7th as our first day. Would it be possible to change dates to sometime in July or August, if spots are available?
- Terres des IncasOperator•Written June 2022
  We would advise September, it is a very good date and the weather is ideal in Cusco. In July and August it is quite cold and ticket reservations fill up quickly on those dates
