Health Recommendations

  • Inform the agency and your doctor if you have mobility issues, heart or respiratory conditions, or any other condition that may limit light walks or exposure to high altitude.
  • Wear comfortable and warm clothing suitable for outdoor activities in high Andean areas, as temperatures may vary throughout the day.
  • Bring any necessary personal medication for the experience (regular treatments and, if applicable, medical prescriptions).
  • Protect yourself from the sun by using sunscreen, a hat or cap, and sunglasses; at high altitude, UV radiation is intense even on cloudy days.
  • Stay hydrated during the activity by carrying a bottle of water, especially if you are still acclimating to the altitude.

Travel Rules and Recommendations

  • Follow the guide’s instructions at all times, especially during the visit to Machu Picchu and at the panoramic train stations.
  • Respect the natural environment and cultural traditions, including any ceremony of gratitude to the Pachamama and other ritual moments.
  • Keep your personal belongings secure and avoid displaying money, jewelry, or valuable items during the experience.
  • Walk carefully, as natural trails and archaeological areas may have uneven terrain, stones, or slopes.
  • Do not separate from the group; if you wish to stop to take photos or stay at a specific point, coordinate it in advance with the guide.
  • If you experience altitude discomfort, lose an item, or have any emergency, inform the guide or our assistance team immediately.
