What's included in the EUR 1925 price?

The package includes 7 nights in 4-star hotels, internal flights, the Nazca Lines aerial tour, Ballestas Islands visit, panoramic train journeys, and all private guided tours in Lima, Sacred Valley, Cusco, and Machu Picchu. Meals and travel insurance are typically not included—confirm with the operator.

Is the itinerary fixed, or can it be customized?

Yes, the tour is customizable. You can adjust the pace, add activities, or modify the route based on your interests and schedule. Contact the supplier before booking to discuss changes.

How much altitude sickness should I expect?

Cusco sits at 3,400m (11,150 ft), which can cause mild shortness of breath or headache. The itinerary includes rest and acclimatization time. Drink water, avoid alcohol on arrival, and consider consulting a doctor beforehand if you have respiratory concerns.

What's the Nazca Lines flight like, and how long is it?

You'll fly in a modern Grand Caravan aircraft with large windows for unobstructed views. Flights typically last 30–45 minutes and depart from Nazca. The experience is smooth but can feel cramped; those with motion sickness should take medication beforehand.

Will I need separate tickets for Machu Picchu, or is entry included?

The full-day Machu Picchu experience is included as part of the package, which typically covers train transport, entry fees, and a guided site tour. Confirm what's covered in your booking confirmation.

Is this tour suitable for solo travellers or families with children?

Yes, the private tour format works well for both. Families should note that some days involve long drives or flights; children under 12 may find the 7-day pace demanding. Discuss any specific needs (dietary, mobility, child safety) with the operator when booking.

★In Sacred Valley, visit local markets on the day they occur in your chosen village (typically Tuesday, Thursday, or Sunday) to see authentic trading and meet artisans
★Arrive in Cusco at least 1–2 days before Machu Picchu to acclimatize to 3,400m elevation and reduce altitude discomfort
★The panoramic train journey to Machu Picchu is spectacular at sunrise; confirm which departure time your package includes

Best time to visit

our guide Giulia had so many stories and the carvings on the main temple wall was the highlight, and used it for our summer trip.
