When you arrive at the airport in Lima, you will be picked up by a representative of the school who will have a sign with your name on it. He will take you to a comfortable two star hotel. The next day, after breakfast, you will be taken back to the airport where you will pick up your flight ticket at the airline counter. To book the pick up package, we need the exact details of your flight to Lima, and your passport number. If there happens to be a delay, please inform us immediately. Please note that booking a roundtrip ticket is slightly cheaper than buying two one way tickets.

Of course you can. Our travel agency can book your local flight ticket to Lima, where someone will wait for you again to take you to the hotel. Please do not forget to give us the details of your departing flight from Lima. Please note that booking a roundtrip ticket is slightly cheaper than buying two one way tickets.

There are two options but both are pretty time consuming. The first route will lead you to Cusco via Ayacucho, Andahuaylas and Abancay and is really beautiful. However, most part of the road is unpaved (and the buses and the hotels bad) and it might be a little too much for the traveller who has just arrived to Peru. All together, it will take you about 48 hours to get to Cusco. There are several bus companies that offer this service throughout the year; however, the route is too dangerous to consider in rainy season. The second option will go to Arequipa first, and then to Cusco. The Lima - Arequipa part is fast: the majority of the trip is via the Panamerican highway, along the coast. Buses are fine and depart about every half an hour from Lima. Arequipa is a beautiful, colonial city, where the traveller might want to consider staying a day or so before continuing the trip. But if you prefer, there is a direct connection to Cusco that departs between the hours of 4:00 and 8:00 p.m. The road is not too good, it might be freezing cold at night and the bus crowded. Now you will start traversing the Andes, this is the real side of Peru! You will arrive in Cusco in the early morning, between 4:00 and 8:00.

A representative from our school will be at the airport with a sign with your name on it to take you to the school or directly to your accommodations. If you do not see anyone, please wait another 15 minutes. If still no one shows up you can either phone us, or take a taxi directly to the school (do not pay more than US $ 2.50).
