FAQ
Flights and Transportation

   
 

1. Is international airfare included in the cost of the Tour?
 
 

International flights are not included in the price of Intense Peru Tours. Normally we do not make international flight arrangements for our clients, but we can do so if requested. Many of our clients have preferred arranging their international flights online through sites such as www.expedia.com, www.travelocity.com or www.priceline.com. We do not receive a commission from the companies mentioned. We recommend them because we are trying to provide you with the best possible service and savings.



2. Are domestic airfare and transportation included in the Tour’s general price?
 
 

All of our Tours include domestic airfare and transportation. Intense Peru offers only the most comfortable domestic transport services available. Whether a Tour offers flights, private vehicles, buses or train transportation, we provide only the best service.



3. Are airport taxes included? If not, how much should I expect to pay?
 
 

Airport taxes are not included in the price of Tours. Peruvian airports normally require passengers to pay in person.

The costs of departure taxes are:

International Flight Departure Tax: US$ 30.25  aprox
Domestic Flight Departure Tax: US$ 6.05 aprox

You can pay in US Dollars or the equivalent in Soles, the Peruvian currency. Please note that these prices are subject to change due to market flunctuations.


4. What about getting around town?
 
 

On the occassions you venture out on your own you can move around town using several different modes of transportation.

If you want flexibility as to your destination or want door-to-door service you can hire either taxis or mototaxis, which are three-wheeled motorcycles with a seat in the back for two people and usually some kind of covering to protect you from the elements. There are no fare-meters in use in Peru. You have to discuss your destination with the driver before you get in the vehicle and negotiate how much you are going to pay. Prices vary according to the type of vehicle you use, the distance, time of day, city you are in, and whether it is a registered taxi or a free-lancer. Ask a local for directions and for a general estimate of how much it should cost to get where you are going before you start negotiating prices with the cab driver. We strongly recommend that for personal safety reasons you spend a little more money  and hire taxicabs that belong to a company or consortium (you have to call them by phone), or those that have their permits in order (in Lima these are yellow cabs and have a fixed sign that lights up on top of the car).
