Three short forms to complete
Along with your confirmation letter we send three forms to fill in and return. They tell us who is coming, what you need on the trail, and who to call if anything happens up high.
Personal Information Form
Your name, address and passport details, plus any dietary requests, medical notes or anything else we should know.
Emergency Contacts Form
Who to reach back home if needed, and your travel insurance details for the mountains.
The confirmation deposit
To confirm your trek: we ask for a deposit of 40% of the trek fee, plus the estimated cost of any hotels and bus tickets we book for you. You can send your deposit in whichever of these ways suits you best.
- Visa or Mastercard: paid through a secure Visa link we send you. Peru adds a 6% credit card commission to each payment, so please add that on.
- International bank transfer: please cover your own bank fees and add the US$40 Peru transfer tax to each payment.
- Western Union, Azimo or MoneyGram: add 1% to the deposit amount and cover your own sending fees.
Once your deposit arrives, your trip is fully confirmed. That is the moment we appoint your guide, cook and key staff for your dates, and pay them deposits to hold their services for you. We do not take American Express or PayPal.
Paying the balance
You can settle the rest of the trip fee in either of two ways, whichever is easier for you:
- Before you arrive: pay from home, in advance, using any of the methods above.
- When you reach Huaraz: pay in person once you are with us, by Visa or Mastercard (add the 6% card commission) or simply in cash, in US Dollars, Euros or Peruvian Soles.
Your final trip pack
About six weeks before you land in Lima, we send you your complete trip information pack: your full programme, all your tickets and hotel vouchers, the practical instructions, the names and numbers you may need along the way, and your final invoice.
We also pass on the names and email addresses of anyone else joining your group, so you can say hello to each other before you all meet in Huaraz.
