recommendations
- For clients who are coming from areas of less than 1000 m of altitude, we recommend that you spend at least 2-3 days in Cusco before the tour to acclimatize.
- This is an optional tour tan Vinicunca, we are going to a other Colorfully Mountain that is not the Vinicunca, is a similar Andean Valley but with less people, we organize only private tours for this place
NOTES:
- In our shared services, we will pick-up our clients from your hotel as long as it is located in the downtown.
- In our shared services, at the end of the tour, we leave our clients in a place close to the Main Square, because is easier go walking instead the car for the traffic jam. If your hotel is far from the downtown, take some cash with you in order to take a taxi.
