    Jason and Elias are the best guide team anyone could ever ask for. They created an excellent team atmosphere while, at the same time, taking care of every detail and passing on the knowledge of history, flora, fauna, and everyday life.

    Paula

    Asked on April 18th, 2024

    Is it possible to customize the hotels included in this package? I would like to offer 4/5 star hotels instead of what is listed here. Specifically, I would like to offer the Andenia Hotel for the Sacred Valley part of the trip. Is that an option?

    • TreXperienceOperatorWritten April 2024

      The Andenia Hotel in the Sacred Valley is outside our usual route, so we would have to consider transfer vehicles for the meetings. If you want a completely personalized and private tour just for you, we will be here to guide you.

      TravelerWritten April 2024

      Can you please confirm that the itinerary you outlined is a confirmed group tour that she is able to join and the price for her to do so? Also, why do you suggest she start on June 8th. Is it not possible for her to start on June 7th?

    • TreXperienceOperatorWritten April 2024

      This service is shared with other travelers; however, please let me know if your client is interested in having this tour as a private service, without other travelers. If your passenger prefers a strictly private service, we can start on a date of their choosing.

      Can you please confirm the price for this group tour?

    • TreXperienceOperatorWritten April 2024

      The price for this package in small group service should be USD 4835 per person including the Luxury, Palacio del Inka, Tambo del Inca, and Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotels.

      Paula

      TravelerWritten April 2024

      Can you please also let me know the price for 3 or 4 star hotels? The price you quoted for 5 stars is sadly outside of her budget for the trip.

    • TreXperienceOperatorWritten April 2024

      We can consider 4-star hotels such as Costa del Sol or Casa Andina Premium. I will double check the quote with these hotels.
