Asked on September 26th, 20251. On Day 1, does the tour begin at 8 am or at 1 pm? The tour description shows both. 2. Is it possible to get twin beds in the hotel rooms? 3. Is it possible to have hotel room with NO feathers? I am very allergic to feathers/down. 4. If our flight arrives at 12:45 am, should we book a hotel room for an extra night? If so, should I do it through you to ensure we will be at the same hotel as the rest of the group?

Monique
Traveler•Written September 2025We would be interested in a hotel room for the night after the tour also. Please provide a quote.
Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written September 2025- Tour start time on Day 1: On Day 1, the tour begins at 1:00 p.m.
- Rooms with two single beds: Yes, this option is available; in fact, it is the configuration that is generally offered.
- Room without feathers/duvets: This depends on your confirmation. Once you let us know your request, we will ensure that your room is prepared according to your needs.
- Arrival at 00:45 and additional night reservation: It is important to mention that you will indeed need to book that additional night, as hotel policies require this to access your rooms so early. Regarding whether this night should be booked through us, that depends on your preference. We have contacts with hotels of 3-star category and above, so if you wish, we can provide the approximate costs per person to help you decide.

Asked on August 2nd, 2024I will already be in Cusco the day before the tour so I will already have hotel accommodations. The tour info says it can be booked without hotel included. How do I do that?

Asked on April 5th, 2024Is this tour available without Cusco accommodation (I already have my accommodation) and can the train be up graded to the Vistadome Train? What would the price be if this is a possibility?
- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written April 2024
1. Yes, we can take off the hotel for your reservation, it will be a discount of $40 per person. 2. VISTADOME TRAIN: $75 per person (one way).

Traveler•Written April 2024Is there a removal of cost for the train, if I'm paying $75 for the Vistadome train? Can you put an itinerary together for me and an end price please?
- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written April 2024
The 75 dollars is only for the return trip. If you want a round trip, it would be 150 dollars per person. There is no discount because the train service is not removed, there is only an upgrade. If you remove the Hotel from the package we discount $40 per night and per person.

Jeremy
Traveler•Written April 2024When does the price change on my quote, if I'm not using the accommodation in Cusco? I have tried booking this and the price is still quoting the accommodation and not the train travel.
- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written April 2024
The platform will not allow you to make changes, those changes would have to be made directly by our system. The rate is $650 per person, you have included one night in Cusco and another in Aguas Calientes. Each night it will be $40, for the 2 it would make a total of $80. Which would give us $650 - $80 = $570 per person.

- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written January 2024
Regarding your questions about the hotel: Hotels are included in this tour with one evening in Cusco and one evening in Aguas Calientes. We can easily add extra nights before or after the tour if needed. Rooms are based on double or triple occupancy. There is a surcharge for a single room. Upgraded hotels are always possible. We can also book the tour without any hotels if you prefer to book them on your own.
