Frequently Asked Questions
We solve the most common doubts before your trip
Inti Raymi is the "Sun Festival," an ancient Inca celebration that pays tribute to the Sun God

Sacsayhuamán
fortress, where the Inca performs rituals and offerings.

We recommend resting for the first few hours upon arrival, drinking plenty of coca tea, staying
hydrated,
and avoiding heavy meals. Our tours are designed for progressive acclimatisation. If the package
