When it is necessary to be closer than 2 to 6 meters, every participant will wear a face mask and plastic face shield. Acordding with the peruvusn governement law we need to wear all the time the másk. For my personal point and experience and what i readed the outdoors distance air and conditions dont make necesary to wear a másk. I consider only when you get close to people or other participantes that are not in your family or close ones.

While maintaining social distance of 2 to 6 meters from other people, your mask is needed to be cover But far away from that like 10 or 20 meters and your are alone while your are hiking or trekking then just below your chin ready to be use in case you get close to other people .

In case of a medical emergency or if someone develops symptoms of Covid-19, it will be reported to health authorities and the person will be evacuated to the nearest hospital. The rest of the tour group and staff will be tested, and will all have temperature and symptom checks every day.
If you are concerned about being in remote regions on your visit to Peru, our tour options include day-trips which would be considerably simpler for you to prepare for and would expose the you to less people.
