Can we book this separately so we don't need to split the payment ourselves?

You can absolutely book individually. We asked Tour Radar to reach out to you for further assistance in setting up the bookings for you and your friend.

Do you help with plane tickets? What would be price from Sacramento California

We cannot assist with airfare, this is something that must be booked separately yourself.

We are 70+/- years old couple and not super physically active with some small (not major) health issues. We are very interested in joining this trip and have checked this website since last year. Our question is, are we able to do this?

With this trip you can opt to hike the Inca Trail, the Lares Trek or stay in Cusco and visit Machu Picchu by train. If you were to opt for one of the hikes these are very physically demanding as the terrain is uneven and high altitude is involved. If you were to opt to stay in Cusco and use the train then this is not a physically demanding tour.

Is there provision to store luggage that I won't be requiring on a hike?

Yes, you can leave excess luggage at the hotel in Cusco while on trip.

Would she be able to come along? She is very active and fit so I don't think the hike would be a problem?

We do not make exceptions on age restrictions unless they are one or two months short to turn 12 years old. We do have "family tours" which allow younger passengers like the Peru Family Experience.

When and where does the tour end?

The tour ends at the Taypikala Hotel Cusco, where you will arrive the night before departure day, and spend a final evening with your newfound travel friends! You can depart at any time the next morning. Please be aware that the hotel is subject to change until your final documents are released.

When and where does the tour start?

Day 1 of this tour is an arrivals day, and your free transfer will be there take you to Hotel Antigua Miraflores upon your arrival. Normal check in times apply however you can store your luggage for the day if you arrive early. You will have the rest of the day to settle in and explore, before heading back to your hotel for the Welcome Reception. Here you will meet the rest of the group and your CEO for the trip, who will review your exciting travel itinerary. Please be aware that the meeting point is subject to change until your final documents are released.

Do you arrange airport transfers?

The tour offers a free arrival transfer on day one. If you arrive up to three days prior to the tour you can also request a free transfer, providing that you have booked your pre-accommodation through National Geographic Journeys in their joining hotel. We can assist you with this. A departing transfer is not included in the tour price, however we would be happy to arrange this for you.

Can you assist with booking additional accommodation?

Of course, we can! Once you have a confirmed booking on this tour, we can request additional accommodation for you with the tour operator.

What is the age range?

This tour has an age range of 12-70 years old. This means children under the age of 12 will not be eligible to participate in this tour. However, if you are over 70 years please contact us as you may be eligible to join the tour if you fill out G Adventures self-assessment form.

Pretour Comms were great: fast and clear. Tour logistics were good enough and daily communication clear. Few minor aspects unexpected eg additional meal costs, rental of equipment (sleeping bags, mattress). Local guides, porters were great ( as expected). At times the encouragement to tip all service providers felt excessive. Overall a good tour, given the small group and pricing.Show more

National Geographic was not associated with our tour, but G adventures did an excellent job. Our guides were knowledgeable, friendly and incredibly helpful on every part of the tour. They all went far above and beyond the minimum, from helping us get laundry done to caring for members of our group who became ill. Every detail was planned for and the tour ran smoothly from start to finish. I will gladly book with G adventures again the future.Show more

  Traveler•Written October 2024
  Yes, we saw the options, but the train option gives little time spending at Machu Picchu like most of other company's program. The Inca Trail option let people see sun rise and spend more time at Machu Picchu. Are we right about this?
- National Geographic Expeditions with G AdventuresOperator•Written October 2024
  That's right, if you want to most time trekking then it is best to do the Inca Trail or Lares Trek, however these can be a little strenuous. It is suitable for most healthy fitness levels though.
