💡 Good to know
- A six-day May–October licensed-road journey with two acclimatisation days in Arequipa, a bounded Chivay and public canyon-viewpoint visit, and a confirmed high-road finish in Puno. Condors, hikes and lake boats are never included promises.
- The defining road and access promise is not supported in these months without a different current-source product and conditions.
