Which hotel is in Cusco?

We can pick up from any hotel in cusco city.

Are there any physical requirements for my tour?

All of Flashpacker Connect treks are challenging and often take place on rugged and isolated terrain. It is recommended that you are reasonably fit and healthy to fully enjoy your tour. Please consult your doctor if you are concerned with the altitude or your ability to trek through the Andes.

What do I pack for my tour?

The recommend packing list will be provided to you once you have booked your tour. If you wish to look at the packing list before booking, please ask your Travel Expert.

What type of accommodation will be used?

All accommodation for Flashpacker Connect tours is camping in tents. The tents are high-quality 4 man tents that sleep a maximum of 2 people per tent to ensure that everyone has enough room to sleep.

Do I need to bring a first aid kit?

No Flashpacker Connect have got you covered! Trekking in high altitude can be dangerous and because of this your guides will always carry a proper first aid kit along with emergency oxygen for you to use if you feel unwell.

What if I have special dietary requirements?

All food provided on your tour will be local Peruvian style dishes to fully embrace your trip to Peru! Please notify your Travel Expert of any dietary requirements that you may have when booking your tour to ensure Flashpacker Connect can accommodate your request.

What altitudes can I expect?

You can expect to experience altitudes from 10,000 feet up to 17,000 feet. We recommend staying a few days in Cusco before your tour to adjust to the altitude, particularly if you are prone to altitude sickness. Please consult your doctor if you are concerned with the altitude.

Tipping is not included in your tour cost. While tipping is not required, it is a common practice in Latin America. If you feel your guide and crew went above and beyond to make your trip special, tipping would be greatly appreciated.
