  Asked on July 22nd, 2026

  Can you organise an early domestic flight to Lima on the Cusco free day so we can take a plane from Lima to Buenos Aires in the morning? Is this possible and how many hours would we need to get from Cusco to Buenos Aires.

    The internal flights are booked by our local office and the times cannot be changed. You would need to make your own arrangements for an earlier flight from Cusco to Lima which will be at your own expense.

    We wish to spend the afternoon on arriving at Aguas Calientes doing a Circuit on Machu Picchu that is not covered by your tour the next morning. Do we have enough time to do this? Can you arrange for the tickets and guide (if necessary) for us?

    At this time, there is no supplier or activity available to arrange hot air ballooning over the Nazca Lines. However, if you are returning to Lima after the tour, we can look into alternative experiences available in the region.

    We will definitely want to do the Rainbow Mountain Trek, hence the need to extend our stay in Cusco. As the tour ends essentially in Cusco, please confirm that any extension of departure does not affect anything other than air tickets booking to return to Lima and that does not affect the price of the tour.

    I have a US$150 credit with Tour Radar. Will this be automatically taken into account when I make the payment on their site?

    We have 3 circuits we book for our clients and can only assist with the included one Machu Picchu visit. Should you wish to go twice, you will need to make all the arrangements for the second visit independently.

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    You are correct, our sincerest apologies. The 13 October departure is currently on sale for $1555.00 per person. This offer expires in 3 days.
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    Your transportation to and from activities and included services is included, however, airport transfers do not fall within this category, therefore they can only be added at an additional cost.
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    If you want to do the Rainbow Mountain trek, you will be able to book this activity with us on day 6, so no extension necessary in Cusco. Should you however feel like you did not have enough time in Cusco and you wish to extend your stay, you will forfeit all services (including but not limited to the flights and accommodation) from Cusco onwards and you will need to arrange all services yourselves. No discounted rate will be offered and the internal flights booked with our team cannot be altered.

    If the travel credit is valid with TourRadar they will be able to apply it to your booking, but we have asked an agent to reach out to you.

    What time will we arrive in Aguas Calientes on the 4th day of the tour?
  • P

    Pauline

    Traveler•Written May 2026

    According to your experience will we have enough time to do a circuit at Machu Picchu when we arrive, taking into consideration the waiting time for the bus and the bus trip up to Machu Picchu from Aguas Calientes?

    Traveler•Written May 2026

    Can you let us know which circuit we will be doing on day 5 so that we can book a different circuit for day 4?

    Traveler•Written May 2026

    If we extend our stay in Cusco will it affect our hotel in Lima if we find our own flight from Cusco to Lima?
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    On Day 4, the train journey from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. The group should arrive back in Aguas Calientes around midday, giving you time to check in at the hotel, drop your bags, and enjoy free time during the afternoon.
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    Generally, there is enough time to visit Machu Picchu on Day 4. The bus journey between Aguas Calientes and Machu Picchu takes approximately 30 minutes each way, and travellers are usually able to fit in a circuit visit that afternoon, even taking bus queues into consideration.
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    The specific Machu Picchu circuit included on Day 5 cannot be confirmed in advance, as this depends on permit availability at the time the booking is secured. There are currently three main circuits available, and the assigned route is only confirmed once permits are issued for your travel date. If you would like to book an additional/different circuit for Day 4, we would recommend waiting until your included circuit has been confirmed.
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    If you choose to extend your stay in Cusco and arrange your own flight from Cusco to Lima, this would affect the included Lima hotel and internal flight arrangements on the tour. We would need to request a custom quote from our Reservations team to remove or amend the included flight/hotel components accordingly.

    Pauline

    Traveler•Written May 2026

    When will we know which circuit the tour will take and will we still have sufficient time to book the Machu Picchu tickets by then? Do we book the bus tickets at the same time and at the ministry of culture site?

    Traveler•Written May 2026

    Can we place our deposit first for this tour and adjust later if we decide to stay on for a few more days in Cusco? When will you need to know our final decision?
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    IT will usually take a couple of nusiness days to secure our Machu Pichu Tickets, once the booking has been requested. After that you ill be able to organise yourself better and organise additional tickets etc.
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    You can pay the deposit first & then add pre/post hotels on once you know your plan

    In this circuit, how can I include the excursion to Rainbow Mountain? Is it done from there with you directly or do I need to have it contracted from Spain?
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    Rainbow Mountain is not included in the standard itinerary for this tour; however, it may be possible to arrange it locally during your time in Peru, depending on the tour schedule and availability. As this excursion is operated separately from the main G Adventures itinerary, we would generally recommend arranging it in advance through with us. I would also be happy to check whether there are any pre- or post-tour options available through G Adventures that could accommodate a visit to Rainbow Mountain alongside your tour.

  Asked on May 17th, 2026

  About Machu Picchu day. Is your guided ruins tour plus optional circuit 1 a similar experience to the Circuit 2 options when booking direct? Also, to confirm, ruins tour plus optional circuit 1 is doable on the day you take us up?

  Tour Details
  • 

    G AdventuresOperator•Written May 2026

    We, by default, book circuit 2 on the Machu Picchu Permits. If they are unavailable for the tour dates that you are booked on, we would offer to book circuit 3 first then circuit 1 if the other is not available. If you are not interested in circuit 2 and want to do circuit 1 or 3 then we can arrange this with the Local Team. Multiple circuits cannot be done on the same day and if you wish to do them, this will need to be arranged all on your side.
