FAQs
If I have a hotel booked in Chivay, can I join the group?
Yes, there is no major problem with this because our experience always ends in Chivay, so if you book your hotel on a private account we can organize it. In the event that your hotel is located outside of Chivay, we must consider additional transportation, so we have to coordinate it in advance.
What is the best time to visit this destination?
The dry or windy season is the best (April – November) are the ideal months since the presence of rain is not so constant, which allows us to enjoy a calmer experience when we observe the flight of the condor.
How many people participate in the service?
Regularly, in our experience, between 12 to 15 people participate, the group can naturally be smaller, however it is the average amount. We ensure that it is not so big with the intention that the experience is personalized.
