Important details & Recommendations

Plan Ahead for High Season

If you’re traveling between May and September, we strongly recommend booking well in advance. This ensures availability for your preferred boutique hotels, premium train services, and Machu Picchu entrance tickets, which can sell out quickly during peak travel months.

Altitude Awareness

This itinerary includes destinations at high elevations, such as Cusco, Lake Titicaca, and Uyuni. If you have concerns about altitude, consult your doctor before traveling. We structure your journey with gentle acclimatization days, but listening to your body and staying hydrated is essential.

Bring Cash in Local Currency

Although many hotels and restaurants accept cards, several smaller shops, markets, local vendors, and rural communities in both Peru and Bolivia accept only cash.
We recommend carrying:

  • Peruvian Soles (PEN) for purchases in Lima, Sacred Valley, Cusco, and Lake Titicaca

  • Bolivian Bolivianos (BOB) for La Paz, Uyuni, and small desert communities

This ensures smooth transactions during your honeymoon and avoids situations where cards cannot be used due to connectivity issues or local limitations.

Weather Variations

Uyuni experiences dramatic weather depending on the season—

  • Rainy season (Jan–Mar): spectacular natural mirror effect

  • Dry season (Apr–Dec): geometric salt formations and crystal-clear horizons

Your advisor will help you choose travel dates based on the experience you prefer.

Fully Customizable Honeymoon

This itinerary is a sample starting point. Your personal honeymoon travel designer can incorporate surprises, romantic dinners, private photo sessions, spa experiences, or special celebrations during your journey.

Your Dream, Made Real
