Personal injury and death:
All our motorcycles are insured according to the minimum requirements of the Peruvian authorities (SOAT). This means that the rider, his passenger AND third parties are limited (!) covered for medical costs.
Nevertheless, we strongly advise our guests to get a health insurance with maximum coverage in Peru, for the length of this tour, because you don’t want to depend on the Peruvian SOAT-insurance.
Damage to the rental motorcycle and third party property damage:
All our motorcycles are standard NOT INSURED for damage to the rental motorcycle AND for property damage to third parties. The optional ‘Damage Reduction Insurance’ covers this kind of damage, with an excess/deductible of max. US$ 700.00, which is also the amount of the “Security Deposit” (cash or major credit card: Visa, MasterCard, Amex or Diners Club), and your maximum risk.
For this tour the insurance premium is US$ 240.00 per motorcycle.
Without this insurance the rider/renter of the motorcycle is fully liable for all costs of damage to the rental motorcycle and third party property. In this case the “Security Deposit” is US$ 2,500.00 (cash or major credit card), but your maximum risk is NOT LIMITED to this amount !
Please, read the complete insurance information for this tour.
On day one you will arrive in Arequipa (Peru), the lively city in southern Peru. We will pick you up from the airport and bring you to the hotel. Your tour guide will do the briefing for the whole group about the upcoming tour. And he will arrange all the necessary paperwork with you. The rest of the day is at leisure in Arequipa, a very nice colonial city with a friendly atmosphere.
It is finally time to start the engines. We start in the early morning, with a good excellent first riding day. To get out of the city is our first challenge. Crossing the mighty Andes form west to east. We end up on the shores of Lake Titicaca, in the city of Puno. When we arrive in the hotel in the heart of the city, we go to the harbor for the boat excursion to the ‘Floating islands of the Uros people’.
The longest riding day on this tour. Just north of Puno we’ll have to cross ‘little New Delhi’-city Juliaca. An experience on its own. Then over the Altiplano to Macusani. We follow the ‘InterOceanic Highway’ downhill on the east slopes of the Andes. From 4.840 to 380 meters in 170 km. That’s NOT a straight road ! We end up in the little tropical town of Quincemil, where we stay in a nice family hotel with luscious tropical gardens.
What comes down, must go up again. We’ll have to climb the mighty Andes again. In about 100 km we climb from 600 to 4,700 meters. That’s NOT a straight road ! The views are just spectacular. After lunch we enter the ancient capital of the Inca empire: Cusco.
Day 5 is the resting day in Cusco. So, no motorcycles today. But that doesn’t mean there is nothing to do. In the morning your tour guide will organize the “World famous walking city tour in Cusco, powered by PeruMotors (free of charge)”. In about 2,5 hours you will see the beautiful sites of Cusco. The afternoon is for exploring Cusco on your own, or visit some Inca ruins outside of Cusco, or just for relaxing at the hotel.
A relative short ride to the “Sacred Valley of the Inca’s”. Here we can visit the Salinas. Lunch will be in Urubamba. We arrive early in the afternoon in the authentic Inca town of Ollantaytambo, where you can visit the most impressive Inca fortress. This is the ONLY place where the Inca won a battle in the war against the Spaniards.
THE absolute touristic highlight of South America: Machu Picchu. And, of course, one of the highlights of this tour. Because there is (still) no existing road to Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu Pueblo), we go by train. Early in the morning the train will bring us, along the Urubamba river, in about 2 hours to Aguas Calientes. Then in about half an hour by bus to the entrance. In the afternoon you’ll return to Ollantaytambo by train.
After all about the Incas in the past days, we are on the road again. On our way to the coast, we’ll have to cross the Andes again. This time eastwards. The riding is amazing and the views are just spectacular. Somewhere halfway to Nasca we spend the night in the tourist-less town of Chalhuanca.
Continuing on the ‘Road with the 1.000 Hairpins”. There is much more Andes to ride today. Actually, more of the same of yesterday. Not boring at all ! The last 90 km we dive from high altitude to 630 meters, That’s NOT a straight road ! We end up in a nice hotel with a pool in Nasca, on a comfortable altitude.
In the morning the possibility to fly over the world famous pampa with the Nasca lines, because they are only visible from the air. After lunch we ride through the desert to the coast. We stay in a hotel on the beach at a stunning location.
Today we follow the coast south bound on the PanAmerican Highway. After lunch we go land inwards to a quite basic hotel in the valley of Majes.
Maybe the most spectacular ride lies ahead of us. Again we’ll have to climb to extreme altitudes. And as an extra bonus we ride about 40 km. on a spectacular gravel road. The Ride-of-a-Lifetime ! We stop in Cabanaconde, close to the Colca Canyon, one of the deepest in the world. The hotel is a nice family type hotel.
Just about 15 km form the hotel we arrive at ‘Cruz del Condor’. Here we can see the Andean Condor in flight. No guarantees ! After seeing the largest flying birds on earth we ride to the little town Chivay for lunch. Then the last part of the tour to our hometown of Arequipa, where we will arrive in the afternoon. At night we tell our stories over a nice farewell-dinner in the city.
Today we will bring you to the airport for your flight back home.
