What if I get sick during my stay and I have to go home?
With a medical declaration (or in case of another urgent situation), AMAUTA will evaluate the possibility of refunding you at least 75% of the complete weeks that you have to cancel because of your illness. There is more information about our refund policy in our General Conditions.
Are there any other fees apart from the costs for class and accommodation?
You pay the price of your classes and the price of your accommodation and a one-time registration fee at AMAUTA Spanish School. If you register again for Spanish classes at AMAUTA (Peru or Argentina), you do not have to pay the registration fee again.
If you make any changes in your dates, course of accommodation after arrival you pay a change fee (all changes are subject to availability). If you participate in the Volunteer / Internship Program, there is a Volunteer / Internship Fee of which the main part will be donated to the project. Check here the complete prices for Spanish courses and accommodation in Cusco.
How can I pay?
All payments are due on the first day of classes at the latest. AMAUTA offers the following methods of payment:
• Before arrival you can make a deposit to one of our bank accounts (US$26 extra charge) or pay through Paypal.
• Upon arrival you can pay in cash (we accept US dollars and Peruvian Soles) or with credit card (6% extra charge).
Can I study for a few weeks, then take a break, and then continue for another couple of weeks?
Yes, this is possible. There are no extra charges if you let us know before arrival. If you decide this after your course has started, we will charge a change fee.
Will you replace classes missed by national holidays?
No - on National Holidays all our staff members and teachers enjoy a well deserved day of rest. However, on holidays we offer you an alternative activity, either a excursion or a hike, or a lecture.
Can I extend my course and accommodation?
Yes - the sooner you can let us know, the better, as spaces might fill up, especially in high season.
How far ahead should I book my course and/or accommodations?
For high season, it is best to reserve a spot at least 6- 8 weeks in advance. For the rest of the year it is good to book your course and accommodations about a month before arrival. We also do last-minute bookings, however in these cases we might not be able to get your Lima-Cusco flight, or your preferred accommodation option.
Which days should I book my travel for? Can you book my trip for me?
Unfortunately we cannot book your trip from your home country to Peru for you. You can do that in your home country with a travel agent. Our services start at the moment you arrive in Peru, if you book our pick up services!
It is a good idea to arrive a couple of days before starting the program to get acclimatized to the altitude. Therefore we recommend you to arrive in Lima on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday, so you can arrive to Cusco one day after. All our Spanish programs start on Monday.
