There is no official age restriction, but travelers should be aware of some hikes. The hardest ones are Rainbow Mountain and Humantay Lake, which require moderate to high physical effort. 

Young children and elderly travelers should consult a doctor before booking. Additionally, they might consider better alternatives, such as taking the bus to Machu Picchu.

Some travelers may experience altitude sickness due to the high elevation in Cusco and surrounding areas. We recommend acclimatizing for at least one day before starting strenuous activities. Other Tips are drinking plenty of water, avoiding alcohol, and considering altitude sickness medication if needed.

The highest point of the tour is Rainbow Mountain at 5,200 m (17,060 ft) and Humantay Lake at 4,200 m (13,779 ft). Other high-altitude locations include Cusco at 3,399 m (11,152 ft), and Machu Picchu at 2,430 m (7,972 ft). It is important to take precautions against altitude sickness.

The tour runs year-round, but the rainy season (November to March) may bring wet and cloudy conditions. If the weather is extreme and affects safety, we may modify the itinerary. In the event of unforeseen circumstances, we can consider rescheduling certain activities or providing alternative experiences. In any case bring a rain jacket and waterproof gear.
