    Why do I have to pay locally for some accommodation on tour?

    The reason many  en route hotels are paid locally is due to fluctuation of hotel prices throughout the year. Instead of getting 'locked' into a contract with one hotel for an entire year, we are able to choose one that has the most reasonable price for that time of year. This saves you money in the end.

    How much luggage can I bring?

    One suitcase or rucksack with a maximum weight of 20 KG, plus your sleeping bag and one carry on bag for the van. Be sure to check the weight allowance of your luggage with your airline as well.

    Are there any age restrictions?

    Our TrekAmerica tours are designed for trekkers aged 18 to 38 years of age. Consequently, they tend to focus on activities and nightlife that appeal to that age range.

    What's included in the price of the Trek?

    1) The services of a professionally-trained tour guide
    2) Transportation in a 15 passenger air-conditioned maxi van
    3) All necessary camping equipment including tents, cold food storage containers, camp lights, stoves and other camp accessories
    4) Admission to all National Parks and monuments as per the "Flexible Night Stops"
    5) Special included activities unique to each Trek

    I am travelling on my own. Will I be the only one?

    No. The majority of the people travelling with us are on their own. Our trips are a great way to travel safely and meet other like minded, adventurous people from all over the world and we do not charge single supplements.

    When should I book my Trek?

    Book early! Many tours fill quickly so you should contact us as soon as possible. We would be happy to help you choose the Trek that is right for you. All of our sales representatives have first hand knowledge and information about our Treks. Call us anytime to check availability or hold a seat on option for up to three days with no obligation.

    Do I need a visa to travel to North America?

    You should check exact visa requirements within your home country. Passport holders from countries that qualify for the Visa Waiver Program (VWP) are now required to obtain an ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authority) which is free and can be applied for online.
