All of these trips cost between S35 and S45 each; prices may vary depending on the
number of people going, but typically include transport and a guide (who often doesn't
speak English). Admission fees and lunch are extra. Trips take a full day; bring warm
clothes, drinking water, sunblock and snacks.
Do not fall for a day trip to Chavín de Huántar on a Monday - the ruins and museum
are closed.
