Weather conditions
PeruMotors schedules its tours at a time of the year, when the weather in the touring area is usually pleasant for motorcycling. Many tours pass through areas, where weather conditions can change very fast and significantly. PeruMotors cannot be made liable for unpleasant and unsuitable weather conditions and no refunds are made for such conditions. Bad weather conditions causes changes in the tour routing and accommodations, the itinerary will be adjusted accordingly and alternate hotels and roads will be used. -
South America...
Besides changes in the weather, the participant should consider that the countries he will visit are developing-countries, with a different life-standard than the western standards. This is South America! And is it also possible that certain roads are closed, due to weather or bad maintenance. Sometimes we have to take a alternative route. That's why we always ask a positive and flexible attitude of our participants. -
Altitude Sickness
About half of all the visitors who stay on heights moren than 3.500 meters will experience some problems with altitude sickness. This is a reaction from the body, because of a lack of oxigen in the air. Delevoping altitude sickness doesn't depend on fitness or routine.
There are many symptoms with altitude sickness. Mostly it will be nauseaness, headache, insomnia and giddiness. During our tours we will reach maximum heights of 5.000 meters, but we stay the night on max. 4.200 meters. On this height is not very likely that you will have much trouble. Probably most visitors will feel the difference while climbing stairs. Take it easy and be sure to drink a lot of fluids, like coca-tea. -
Do you want to participate with your own motorcycle?
Participants can join our guided tours with their own motorcycle. In this case the rider/owner of the motorbike has to take care himself of the transport of the motorcycle to Arequipa, Peru. And the insurance of the motorcycle must comply with the local standards. PeruMotors can not arrange this transport and/or insurance. -

General Information for all people coming to Peru, Chile, Bolivia and/or Argentina:
See our 'About'-pages at the left of your screen for more info.
The rental-motorcycles of Perumotors S.R.L. are insured according to the minimum requierements (SOAT) of the Peruvian authorities.
That implies: Damages and liabilities for death, personal injury, partial or permanent disability and medical or hospital bills of third parties are covered, with a maximum amount of (±) US$ 5.000,00.
Damages and liabilities for death, personal injury, partial or permanent disability and medical or hospital bills of the rider and/or his/her passenger is covered with a maximum of (±) US$ 5.000,00.
For all other damages:
Material damages to third parties are NOT covered.
Material damages to the 'own' rental-motorcycle are NOT covered. Mechanical damage, when the rider is not to blame, is covered by PeruMotors.
All consequence damages are NOT covered.
The obligatory covering (SOAT) for personal damage to third parties is sufficient and does not need extra insurance.
PeruMotors learned that claiming upon the SOAT is a long and dificult 'road'. The medical help according to the SOAT is likely not the same you are used to.
That is why PeruMotors recommends all her clients strongly to insure fully against cancellation, accident, loss of luggage and personal property and medical expenses.
