I am a 50 year old solo traveler interested in the Peru: Ancient Cities and the Andes tour. Is there something similar in experience and price?

These are all Classic tours, which are open to all ages, rather than tours as this one you inquired about, which is a 18 to 39-yrs old tour, based on multi-share hostel accommodation

I'd like to know if the maximal age is mandatory ! I'm 45 years old . Can I book anyway ?

This tour is a part of our 18-30somethings travel style, which is only available for travellers between the ages of 18 - 39 to book onto. Our other travel styles, such as Classic, Active, National Geographic Journeys, etc., do not have any age restrictions.

We are a group of four seniors, all around 60 years old, and we are not able to do a 3-day trek. Is there any alternative option available?

Unfortunately this tour is in our 18-Thirtysomething travel style, which has an upper age limit of 39 years old. These tours are in our basic accommodation style. We do have a similar tour called Peru Panorama and you can opt to do Machu Picchu by Train and skip the hiking. This option gives you more time in Cusco to explore whilst anyone hiking starts their journey to Machu Picchu.

Kids are 15 and 13. Is new tour accommodating of these ages?

This tour is a part of our 18-30somethings travel style, which is only available for travellers between the ages of 18 - 39 to book onto. Our other travel styles, such as Classic, Active, National Geographic Journeys, etc., do not have any age restrictions, and can accommodate a 13 and 15 years old.

How much would airport transfers be for the start of this tour?

The cost for an arrival transfer at the start of your tour is typically around $55AUD.

What travel insurance should I get?

We recommend a policy that covers medical expenses, evacuation, and repatriation up to a minimum of $200,000.00 USD.

Are airport transfers included in the tour price?

Airport transfers are generally included. Please confirm at the time of booking whether this applies to your specific tour.

What is the maximum group size for this tour?

The maximum group size can vary, but most tours are designed for small groups to enhance the experience.

Could you please tell me the hiking distances/etimated time to hike them for the inca trail on this trip?

Day 10 - Inca Trail – Wayllabamba Camp 5h-6h 11km Day 11 - Wayllabamba Camp – Paqaymayo Camp 6h-7h 12km Day 12 - Paqaymayo Camp – Wiñaywayna 9h 16km Day 13 - Wiñaywayna – Machu Picchu 2h-3h 6km

How many people are currently booked for the tour?

The current number of confirmed travellers for the tour varies. You can reach out to us via the Ask a Question button for the most accurate and updated information.

This g adventures trip to Peru was a once in a lifetime dream holiday. I got to learn about the magnificent Peru, and visit a 7th wonder of the world, machi Picchu, while also enjoying the fantastic company of our group and amazing tour guide. The whole experience truly felt like a dream that I will struggle to live up to again. To choose a tour operator that also helps the local communities only made things even better as we spent a wholesome visit with our host family, diving into the culture of Peru. This was an unforgettable experience that I highly recommend for those interested in really seeing what a country has to offer.Show more
