How to book the 15-day tour of the coast, mountains and jungle of Peru with FLY CUSCO PERU?
To book the 15 day tour with us we will need a deposit of $2000 per person. Once we receive your deposit, we will send you a confirmation of your trip and the reservation form to complete. Here you have all the information that has to be filled in the form.
How long in advance should I make my reservation?
We recommend that you do this many months in advance. You must make the reservation at least 30 days in advance. Since the spaces in Machu Picchu are quickly exhausted. This will depend on booking the best hotels on this tour, hotels are always guaranteed when they are available. With much time in advance we guarantee the hotels that we know are better in terms of quality of service, style, infrastructure and details in the interiors of each room.
Do I need to make a deposit to guarantee my reservation?
Yes, no reservation will be guaranteed unless you have made a deposit payment of 2000 per person through our 2 payment methods mentioned in our Book Now form. Important: None of the requested deposits include transaction fees.
What about the outstanding balance?
The outstanding balance can be given in cash after settling in your hotel in Lima, it can be in dollars or soles, and if you prefer to use PayPal or payment link (a service fee of 6% applies). Also, you can pay us only by Visa credit card at our payment machine (POS). (a 5% service fee applies). Let us know which of the payment methods is your preference.
NOTE: Payment must be made the day of your arrival in Lima.
The tour must be paid in full no later than 7:00 pm on the day of your arrival (usually after the briefing).
What is the best time to do the excursion?
Peru is a very large country with many different climates, for that reason it would be very difficult to define a good time to visit different places. However, we consider that the best season is from April to December. From January to May is the rainy season in Cusco in the rest of the country it is sunny – summer.
Where will the information session take place?
Our representative will meet you at the airport in Lima – Peru, while we take you to your hotel we will give you an overview of what you can expect on this 15-day tour. Or if you prefer, in the hotel lobby once you have checked in and are comfortable.
What do I have to bring?
What to bring: Well-charged cameras, sunglasses, comfortable clothes and shoes, hat, sunscreen, repellent, extra energy battery, jacket, small backpack with enough clothes for daily changes. It is your choice.
Can I store my luggage when I travel to Machu Picchu on day 9?
Of course! During the trip to Machu Picchu, you can leave or store the things that you will not take to Machu Picchu in the hotel where you are staying. Most of these establishments have warehouses where they will store your things (at no extra cost). This day take a small backpack or suitcase with enough clothes to spend the night in Aguas Calientes.
PRICE: US$ 3200 per person
PRE-PAYMENT: US$ 2000 per person

Very good service and attention. Impeccable and very comfortable logistics. The company's guide was very knowledgeable and allowed me to observe many things that I would have missed if I had not gone with him...
