By choosing this trip you also choose to serve your physical form, as indicated in the itinerary, softer options are available but you will enjoy it more if you can challenge yourself a little. There are transport options available if you want to reduce the leg work. As advisable for a ski trip, it’s best to increase your stamina and strength before you arrive. Increase your walking distance, do some hill walking, swim or dance to improve your fitness and lower your heart rate.

Dehydration is more rapid at altitude and first occurs on the aeroplane. Water will be available but you must take personal responsibility to keep yourself hydrated and get enough sleep (especially after a long flight). Fly in with enough time to adjust.

It takes 3-4 days to produce more red blood cells and become more oxygen efficient. To assist your body’s adaptation you either need to increase the iron content in your diet or take a good quality supplement. I recommend Eagle Haemo-Red Plus or Solgar Gentle Iron, 25mg. Avoid low-quality iron supplements, they are poorly absorbed and cause constipation (e.g Iron Sulphate). Extra Iron is normally a free radical for men or post-menopausal women so it’s not included in all multi-vitamin supplements. Start taking it the day you fly and continue for 3 days (no more). Menstruating women adapt more readily and often don’t menstruate (lucky right?!) when coming to Andean altitudes because their bodies will keep the iron and not let it go. So don’t immediately assume you are pregnant or sick if your period doesn’t arrive.
The local herbal remedy for altitude sickness is coca leaves, you can chew them or make an infusion with hot water, these are widely available in the hotels.

Dietary preparation is required to clean the body and prevent a nasty physical detox that is not ideal on holiday. We are intending to enjoy a wonderful heart-opening and profound connection to the time/space continuum on our journey, for sure some mental and emotional detoxing is a bonus and comes with mild purging, that’s normal.

Yes there are. You need to have good cardiovascular health and be free of any contra-indicative conditions such as schizophrenia, hallucinations and not be on SSRIs for mood regulation. A full list of known contra-indicative medications will be provided but you should always check with your GP if you have any health concerns or want to pause any medication to participate. FULL responsibility is assumed by YOU in this undertaking.

Yes, couples are very welcome, of course you understand it is a personal development journey and you will both enable this space for one-another.

A packing list will be provided and you will not be required to carry all your luggage for the 3 week trip. We will store warm clothes in Cusco (for example) when we go to the jungle.

Both International and Domestic flights will normally be required for this trip. It is possible to fly into Cusco internationally (usually connection cities for long-haul are Bogota, Columbia and Santiago, Chile).
* Outbound: If you fly into Lima you require a Cusco domestic flight
* Inbound: Our trip ends in La Paz so you need to take the best option from there, it’s often better to return to Cusco or Lima to pick up your returning international flight. La Paz is not an international airport so to fly home from Boliva you would need a domestic flight from La Paz to a Bolivian international airport.

The trip is designed to help you adjust to the altitude gently but it does get higher and higher as we progress through the trip weeks and we will be covering a considerable distance. If allopathic medicine makes you feel safer bring both altitude sickness and travel sickness tablets. (These are also available to buy in Peru).
For the Jungle specifically we are travelling outside of the mosquito season but you may elect to bring anti-malaria medication and have the yellow fever injection.
