Notes: Important!
Guides:
Two bi-lingual guides with backcountry and first aid training will be along. The guides each posses satellite phones and cell phones.
Motorcycle License:
United States citizens can go to AAA and ask for an Inter-America License.
*Make sure you get your motorcycle endorsement on it!
Passport:
A passport will be needed. No Visa is required for up to three months of travel in Argentina and Chile for citizens of the United States and Japan.
Money:
ATM cards are best and work better than cash or traveler's checks. Cash may be rejected if there are any marks whatsoever on the bills. Visa and/or Mastercard will get you through (one of each as a backup plan is even better).
GPS:
GPS coordinates are available for all Garmin users.
Laundry:
Laundry facilities are available at least on each two-day stop (Arequipa and Cusco).
