FAQs
Can altitude affect me?
Your well-being will always be our priority. That is why we recommend you to drink hot drinks such as coca and muña tea and rest for a few hours before starting your activities in high-altitude destinations such as Cusco and Puno.
How many days do I need to stay to see the main attractions of Peru?
Peru is an inexhaustible destination and you will need around 9 days to get to know it. We recommend the southern route that includes Lima, Arequipa, Puno and Cusco and, if you want to take more time, we have extensions of 2 to 4 days in other regions of Peru.
Is it possible to visit Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu in a full day? Yes. There are two schedules to climb Huayna Picchu mountain. It is necessary to check the availability before making the reservation since only 200 people enter per shift (07am and 10am).

The trip was terrific with great planning on your part. Most of the adventures were not mainstream and somewhat off the beaten path which made it especially enjoyable!! We felt taken care of and you all were readily available to respond to questions and issues. I would highly recommend your company and friends have already expressed interest based on our pictures and excitement.

Our advisor at Adventure Life, Mary Curry, was knowledgable and quick to respond with answers to any questions we had. She made our booking efficiently and set up a time for us to make a secure payment through her directly. We’ve used Adventure Life repeatedly and would definitely recommend it.

I selected Adventure Travel as I was not satisfied with the responsiveness of the agent for the cruise I was trying to book and it had good recommendations. So far, I am quite happy with my agent, Betty, very responsive and accommodating.
