YOUR PRACTICAL BRIEFING
Check altitude acclimatisation when planning Cusco and Sacred Valley, and book Machu Picchu access early.
Cities may have transit options, but parks and cross-country journeys need dedicated long-distance routing.
Seasons are reversed in much of South America, and altitude or hurricane patterns matter in some places. Check the exact dates and local weather advice before departure.
Check passport validity, visas, health requirements, insurance, baggage, currency, mobile connectivity, accessibility and official advisories for every country and transit point.
For entry requirements, consult the relevant government immigration or embassy website and the IATA Travel Centre ↗. For attractions, consult official venue or park websites for prices, access and permits.
