Tour Information

To protect your interests as much as possible, please read our Booking Notes and Terms of Liability carefully. This document contains important information that our company wishes to bring to the attention of tour members traveling overseas, and, together with our Important Safety Information for Overseas Travel and Other Notes, forms part of the travel contract. We reserve all rights to interpret the content of this website.

(I) Registration Process and Important Notes

If you book through this website, please carefully read all the terms published on our company website, in the order confirmation, and in the tour information notice. By submitting your order, you confirm that you have read and fully agree to the terms published by our company. If any tour participant violates the rules set out in these terms, they shall bear all resulting consequences.

1. When booking, please fill out the booking form on the website. Carefully complete and check all information, including names, gender, ID/passport numbers, contact details, required room type, and pickup and drop-off points. Our company accepts no liability for losses arising from incorrect information provided by the customer. After successful submission, we will send you an order confirmation. As seats on the tour bus are limited, we will prioritize boarding arrangements according to when payment is received. The final vehicle will be assigned based on group size, with one seat guaranteed per person. After checking that all details are correct, please arrange payment within the validity period of the order. If the tour fee is not paid in full by the deadline, the booking will be treated as automatically canceled, and we reserve the right to cancel your order without further notice.

2. Once the group departure has been confirmed, all participants must pay 100% of the tour fee before the order-hold deadline. As coach seats and hotel rooms are limited, and hotel reservations are often subject to deadlines, participants who book within five working days before departure should promptly complete payment. Otherwise, our agency reserves the right, depending on the circumstances, to hold or cancel the order without first obtaining the applicant’s consent. Any transaction fees incurred when paying the tour fee, regardless of payment method, are the payer’s responsibility. After payment, please email or fax proof of payment (the transaction slip for an in-person bank transfer or a screenshot of the successful online transfer page) to our company. Be sure to include the relevant order number on the proof; otherwise, our finance department will be unable to match the payment to the order. If, because payment was made late, the tour fee has still not reached us two days before the end of the tour, our agency may require the participant to provide the corresponding amount in cash as a deposit to the tour guide. If we subsequently verify that the payment was made twice, our company will promptly refund the excess amount.

3. After our company confirms receipt of the participants’ payments, we will confirm their tour registration. Five days before departure, participants will receive a tour confirmation notice at the email address provided during registration. It will include information for reference, such as the tour guide, itinerary, and pickup and drop-off points. Due to network delays or spam filtering, participants may not receive the notice five days before departure. If this happens, please contact the relevant staff for assistance.

4. We arrange shared rooms with guests of the same gender by default. Hotel room types are arranged according to travelers’ requests submitted at the time of booking. If you book alone or as part of an odd-numbered group (such as 3, 5, or 7 travelers), you will need to pay an additional single-room supplement. In special circumstances, such as during peak travel season when a hotel has insufficient rooms, or for other reasons beyond our control, room arrangements may change and travelers must cooperate with our arrangements. If room assignments on arrival do not meet your requirements because you entered your gender or room preferences incorrectly when booking, we will coordinate and make arrangements based on room availability at the hotel on the day of check-in. Any additional costs incurred must be paid by the travelers.

5. If a participant needs to leave the tour early for special reasons, they must notify us when registering or before joining the tour and sign an “Early Departure Declaration.” For each night of accommodation not used after leaving early, 16 EUR will be deducted (or 30 EUR per unused night if the participant booked a single room for the entire tour). If no hotel nights are missed, no refund will be made from the tour price. If a participant requests to leave the tour early during the trip, they must inform the tour guide and sign an “Early Departure Declaration”; fees paid will not be refunded. Participants must provide truthful information about their health, identity, and other relevant matters when registering and during the trip, complete all relevant information accurately, and fulfill the required legal formalities. Participants are responsible for any costs and losses resulting from personal reasons, such as feeling unwell during the trip. Visitors with a history of serious illness (for example, those with a critical, terminal, or contagious disease) must disclose this truthfully when registering. In view of a visitor’s health or other circumstances, our company reserves the right to decide whether to accept their registration.

6. Travelers aged 70 or over who sign up for a tour must be accompanied by a family member and complete the “Tour Participation Declaration.” If they insist on signing up without a family member, our company reserves the right to refuse their booking, depending on the circumstances. Travelers shall be responsible for all consequences arising during the trip from their own actions.

7. Pregnant travelers must disclose their pregnancy when booking. As a general rule, participation is not recommended for those more than 24 weeks pregnant. Those who insist on joining must be accompanied by a family member and complete a Liability Waiver, but our company reserves the right to refuse participation depending on the circumstances. Those less than 24 weeks pregnant who insist on joining must also be accompanied by a family member and complete a Participation Declaration, but our company reserves the right to refuse participation depending on the circumstances. Travelers are responsible for all consequences arising from their own actions during the trip.

8. Minors joining the tour must be accompanied by at least one adult who fulfills their duty of care and is responsible for the minor’s safety. Participants are responsible for all consequences arising from a minor’s own actions or from inadequate supervision by their accompanying adult during the trip.

9. Participants must ensure that all information provided for the tour is accurate, especially personal identification details and contact phone numbers. Participants are responsible for all consequences resulting from incorrect information (for example, being unable to cross a border because personal identification documents have expired or the visa type does not meet the relevant country’s entry requirements, or a guide and other relevant staff being unable to contact a participant because the mobile phone number provided is incorrect). Participants are responsible for any resulting personal return travel costs, transportation costs, travel expenses, and other losses.

10. Applicants are advised not to book any flights or other tickets related to the tour itinerary before their tour participation is confirmed. If an applicant books flights or other tickets related to the itinerary at their own discretion but is ultimately unable to join the tour, they shall bear all resulting losses.

(2) Fee Details:

For details of what is included and excluded, see the Fees section on our website. If you have any questions, please contact customer service.

(3) Group Cancellation and Change Terms

(1) Once any order is confirmed, we will immediately purchase airfare, train tickets, and Machu Picchu tickets. These tickets cannot be refunded or changed if the customer cancels or changes the booking after purchase.

(2) The amount remaining after deducting the airfare, train tickets, and Machu Picchu tickets from the order total:

(3) For cancellations 50 days or more before departure, a hotel booking fee of EUR 100 per person will be charged;

(4) For cancellations 45–49 days before departure, 30% of the remaining amount will be charged;

(5) For cancellations 40–44 days before departure, 50% of the remaining amount will be charged;

(6) For cancellations within 39 days of departure, 100% of the remaining amount will be charged;

(7) If the booking is made within any of the time periods specified above, the corresponding terms will apply;

(8) For cancellations 50 days or more before departure, you may be able to change your departure date once without a service fee, subject to availability (any non-refundable or non-changeable costs, such as airfare, train tickets, and Machu Picchu tickets, must be paid). Changes made within 14 days of departure will be subject to the cancellation terms above;

(9) Customers must read all terms when booking. Placing a booking constitutes acceptance of all the terms above.

(4) Member Obligations

1. Tour participants must not engage in illegal activities during the trip.

2. When exercising their rights, group members must not harm the interests of the state, society or the collective, or the lawful rights and interests of others.

3. Observe public order and respect social etiquette. Tour members should respect the dignity of tourism service staff, show mutual respect and assist one another, and respect local ethnic customs and traditions. Do not deface landscapes or buildings, spit, litter, or engage in other uncivilized behavior.

4. Make an effort to learn what you need to know for your trip and strengthen your awareness of personal safety. Tour members may choose and purchase personal accident travel insurance and other insurance at their own discretion. During the trip, keep your luggage and belongings safe, and carry valuables with you or take other protective measures.

5. When traveling, pay attention to the local weather and take care to keep children safe.

6. If a traveler voluntarily takes part in hazardous activities included in a regular tour itinerary, such as rock climbing, mountaineering, rafting, scuba diving, or bungee jumping, which may cause personal injury, the traveler shall be solely responsible for any resulting disputes, property loss, or personal injury, and our company shall bear no liability.

(5) Liability

1. Our company reserves the right to change accommodation, travel routes, places visited, and departure dates as required by specific circumstances.

2. If changes arise beyond our company’s control, such as insufficient numbers of participants or problems with a ship / aircraft, our company reserves the right to change or cancel the itinerary. If the itinerary is canceled, our company will refund all fees paid by the members or recommend a similar alternative product. Our company accepts no liability for canceling any itinerary.

3. In the event of civil unrest, terrorist activity, a serious infectious disease outbreak, natural disaster, other disaster, disturbance, murder, riot, war, or other disaster beyond our company’s control that may seriously threaten members’ personal safety, or unforeseen circumstances such as weather, transport disruptions, or strikes, our company reserves the right to cancel or replace any tour activity before or after departure, and to shorten or extend the trip, but must notify members in advance. Our company is not responsible for any resulting additional expenses or losses, and members may not object or withdraw on these grounds.

4. As public security conditions vary from country to country, tour members should take care of their personal and traffic safety and keep their belongings and luggage secure. If anything is lost or damaged during the trip due to loss, theft, robbery, or other causes, notify the tour leader and report it to the police promptly. Our company accepts no legal liability.

5. Participants must carry a valid passport and identification documents at all times. If a participant has to leave the tour early because of an issue with their documents or passport, they are responsible for this themselves, and any remaining tour fees are non-refundable. If this affects the other participants’ itinerary, the participant must pay the relevant compensation.

6. If a traveler suffers personal injury or death, or loss of property, as a result of an accident during the itinerary (such as an accident while taking part in entertainment or recreational activities, illness, death, or a fall or injury resulting from personal activities, or the traveler’s violation of the provisions or notices set out in our company’s terms), the traveler shall bear all related liability and costs. Our company accepts no responsibility for such injury, death, or loss of property. The traveler shall compensate our company for any losses caused as a result.

7. If a group member deliberately fails to follow the rules or disrupts the normal activities or interests of the group, our tour leader has the right to cancel their participation. Fees paid will not be refunded, and we accept no responsibility for anything the member does after leaving the group.

8. Times shown in the itinerary are for reference only. Actual arrival times may be delayed due to various circumstances beyond our control, such as weather, traffic jams, traffic accidents, holiday events, unrest, or strikes. We appreciate your understanding. If you have onward travel arrangements and need to take other transportation to another city, we strongly recommend allowing at least 3 hours of free time to avoid inconvenience caused by itinerary delays. We accept no responsibility for any losses incurred due to onward travel arrangements made without allowing sufficient free time.

(VI) Overseas Travel Safety Information and Other Important Notes

To protect your interests as much as possible, please read our Important Safety Information for Overseas Travel and Other Notes carefully. This document contains important information that our company wishes to bring to the attention of tour members traveling overseas, and, together with our Booking Notes and Terms of Liability, forms part of the travel contract.

(1) Helpful Tips

1. Peru is 13 hours behind Beijing. Peruvian power outlets include two types: two parallel flat pins (US standard) and two round pins (European standard). The voltage is 220 V and the frequency is 60 Hz. Please bring the appropriate plug adapters.

2. If traveling to Peru, we recommend getting vaccinated against yellow fever and hepatitis A in advance and carrying proof of vaccination, commonly known as the “yellow booklet.”

3. Peru is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, where minor earthquakes occur occasionally. If an earthquake occurs, stay calm and quickly use the hotel’s emergency stairs to reach an open outdoor area. When checking in, we recommend finding out where the nearest evacuation stairs are and learning the earthquake evacuation route for your accommodation.

4. Although Peru is not on the equator, sunlight is intense throughout the country and UV levels are extremely high. Whether the sky is clear or overcast, apply sunscreen with an SPF of 50 or higher during outdoor activities in Peru to avoid sunburn. UV levels are high at altitude. When outdoors, we recommend covering as much skin as possible and bringing sunscreen, a sun hat, sunglasses, and other protective items.

5. Cusco has an average elevation of 3,640 meters. Most people experience altitude sickness when they first arrive, but symptoms usually subside on their own after a day or two. On your first day, avoid strenuous activity, drink plenty of water, and avoid alcoholic and caffeinated drinks. Peru is generally at a high elevation. If this is your first time traveling to a high-altitude area, take medication to prevent altitude sickness in advance of your tour. During the tour, try to stay relaxed and move slowly at first to avoid overexertion. Drink plenty of warm water, eat fruit rich in vitamin C, or take glucose. Smoke less, avoid alcohol, and avoid sleeping pills. (Altitude sickness is a normal physiological response. Most people can adjust to high altitudes and overcome the symptoms; simply take it in stride.) If you feel unwell or your altitude sickness becomes severe, notify your guide immediately.

6. Temperatures are generally low at high altitudes, with significant temperature differences between morning and evening and between day and night. Weather can change quickly, so we recommend bringing warm clothing.

(2) Safety Information

Clothing

1. Temperatures can vary considerably between morning and evening. Be sure to use sun protection and adjust your clothing as temperatures change.

2. Please take good care of your belongings and luggage. We accept no responsibility for loss or theft.

3. Clearly write your name and contact details on your luggage for identification and to make it easier to return if it is found after being lost. If your luggage is lost, notify the relevant parties (such as the hotel or airline) and report it to the police as soon as possible. If it cannot ultimately be recovered, keep the police report to make a claim with the relevant party or your insurance company (if you have insurance).

Food

1. The guide will do their best to help arrange Chinese-style group meals for guests who need them. If there are not enough diners for a group meal, or if one cannot be arranged due to holidays, business hours, or other reasons (for example, there may be no Chinese restaurant in a small town), the guide will do their best to help arrange fast food, Western food, or meals at a supermarket or the hotel. We appreciate your understanding if meals arranged as required by the itinerary cannot meet everyone’s preferences. We recommend bringing bottled water, snacks, and other food in case of need.

2. Do not drink unclean water or eat unhygienic, spoiled, or foul-smelling food. When visiting areas with poor sanitation, choose cooked food and packaged drinks.

3. Do not accept or consume cigarettes, food, or drinks offered by strangers.

4. To help prevent travel-related illness, bring any medicines you regularly use or commonly need. Travelers with chronic illnesses should carry their medical records in case of emergency. Never take medication provided by someone else without careful consideration.

5. Our agency does not provide or arrange alcohol. Participants who enjoy drinking must strictly limit their alcohol consumption during the trip. Anyone who causes trouble while intoxicated, disturbs public order, infringes on others’ rights, or causes financial loss to a third party is solely responsible.

Accommodation

1. Hotel facilities:

① Accommodation standards vary by region in Peru. Major tourist cities such as Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, and Puno offer a wide range of hotels. Accommodation in Trujillo, Chiclayo, Huaraz, and other areas is more basic, with few upscale hotels and mostly three-star properties.

② Peruvian hotels do not provide plastic slippers, toiletries, toothbrushes, or kettles. Please bring your own daily necessities.

③ In the event of a trade fair or other large-scale event, we reserve the right to select the hotel’s star rating.

④ If you book with us a hotel in a city that is not scheduled for an overnight stay on the itinerary, we reserve the right to select the hotel’s star rating.

2. Hotel meals:

① Peruvian hotel rooms do not provide drinking hot water.

② Hotel food is somewhat different from what you may be used to in China, and breakfast is fairly simple.

3. Hotel safety tips for your stay:

① Please keep your valuables safe. Do not leave them in your hotel room, and avoid carrying large amounts of cash or expensive watches or jewelry. Keep your travel documents and belongings secure, and bring a photocopy of your travel documents and credit cards to use as proof when applying for replacements if they are lost.

② Please take good care of your belongings and luggage. We accept no responsibility for loss or theft.

③ Please do not smoke in your hotel room. Any resulting hotel fines must be paid by the person responsible.

④ After checking into the hotel, familiarize yourself with its safety information. Check whether the room windows can be opened and where the fire-fighting equipment is located. Find out where the hotel’s emergency exits and stairways are, and learn the evacuation routes.

⑤ Check that all the items provided in your hotel room are present and undamaged. If anything is missing or damaged, report it immediately to hotel staff or your tour guide.

⑥ Do not casually tell strangers the name of your hotel or room number. Do not let strangers or anyone claiming to be hotel maintenance staff enter your room. Lock the door whenever you enter or leave, and before going to sleep check that the door and windows are closed and the security lock is engaged. Keep your belongings close to you rather than near the windows or elsewhere.

⑦ If you need to go out while staying at the hotel, inform your tour guide and get a hotel key card from the front desk. The card has the hotel’s address and phone number, which you can use to ask for help if you get lost.

1. Boarding and alighting:

① All tour participants must gather on time and depart promptly. Please arrive at the pickup point 15 minutes early. Our tour bus will not wait. Anyone who fails to meet at the agreed time and place, or join the tour en route, will be considered to have forfeited their place, and no refund will be given.

② The boarding and disembarking times shown on the website are estimates. The company’s confirmation will determine the exact pickup and drop-off locations. (If traffic or other exceptional circumstances prevent our coach from arriving at the pickup point on time, or the time changes at short notice, we will notify you promptly. Please wait patiently.)

③ Coaches come in three types: large coaches, minibuses, and 9-seat minibuses. Large coaches generally have dedicated luggage compartments, while minibuses and 9-seat minibuses have relatively limited luggage space. As coach luggage-compartment space is limited, we recommend bringing as little luggage as possible. We will arrange vehicles based on the final group size, ensuring one seat per person.

④ To avoid overcrowding near attractions, coach parking areas in most European cities are located some distance away, and drivers are not allowed to park wherever they wish. Violations can result in hefty fines, so the drop-off and pick-up points may be some distance from the attractions. We appreciate your understanding.

2. Safety tips for coach travel:

① Smoking is prohibited in the vehicle.

② Do not bring prohibited items.

③ Do not handle any items in the vehicle unnecessarily, to avoid damage.

④ Follow the tour guide’s instructions during temporary coach stops, and do not wander away.

⑤ When leaving the tour vehicle to sightsee, eat, or shop, remember to close the vehicle windows and take your valuables with you. The travel agency accepts no responsibility for loss or theft.

⑥ As the journey is long and the vehicle is under considerable strain, if it breaks down and affects the itinerary, the travel agency will promptly take remedial action. Please cooperate.

(3) Other Information and Important Notes

1. Please comply with local laws and regulations.

2. Please be sure to carry the relevant documents and a valid passport with you.

3. When participating in group activities, follow the tour leader's/guide's instructions and avoid leaving the group for your safety.

4. Before taking part in any high-risk activity, assess your health and abilities, and follow the relevant safety instructions, such as wearing a life jacket, fastening a seat belt, and wearing suitable or required clothing. Tour members are strongly advised not to take part in these activities during free time on the trip. If you choose to take part, you do so at your own risk.

5. Do not take part in entertainment activities suspected of being illegal.

6. Pay attention to and observe all warnings, such as not wandering around or feeding the animals in a wildlife park.

7. When visiting areas with poor public security, be especially vigilant and avoid going out alone.
