REGISTRATION COST

 

There are two cost options for this trip

 

 

OPTION 1

 

4 star twin share AUD $5995

 

4 star single AUD $7195 (includes single supplement)

 

OPTION 2

 

5 star twin share AUD $6850

 

5 star single AUD $8600 (includes single supplement)

 

Please be aware that as there are many logistical preparations and costs that we incur at an early stage the deposit is non refundable if you choose to make a subsequent cancellation and we cannot find a replacement to take your place. Good travel insurance should cover you for such an eventuality and it is worth checking with your provider. Of course if for any reason we were forced to cancel the meeting all monies paid to us would be refunded in full. Please see the registration form for details of the MOTE cancellation policy.

 

 

For 2015 we have chosen two new hotels. The 4 star option will be The El Mercado, a lovely hotel owned by Mountain Lodges of Peru. Check out their website at http://www.elmercadotunqui.com to get a good feel of the style of accommodation.

 

The 5 star upgrade will be at one of Cusco's newest hotels, The Marriott. This is a truly stunning hotel in the heart of Cusco and will also serve as the actual venue for the Cusco workshops. Check out their website at http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/cuzmc-jw-marriott-hotel-cusco/

 

NB: No application will be confirmed as registered until a deposit has been received.

DEPOSIT

 

We will require a deposit of 25% at the time of booking and the balance by the 15th December 2014. The early payment is required to ensure we can hold all our reservations and permits for the Inca Trail. Permits for the Inca Trail are booked out very early and once the quota has been reached no exceptions are made. Please be aware that as there are many logistical preparations and costs that we incur at an early stage the deposit is non refundable if you choose to make a subsequent cancellation and we cannot find a replacement to take your place. Good travel insurance should cover you for such an eventuality and it is worth checking with your provider. Of course if for any reason we were forced to cancel the meeting all monies paid to us would be refunded in full.

 

NUMBERS

 

Numbers are restricted to 50 so an early booking is recommended. We believe it is unlikely we would secure any more permits than that for the Inca Trail but will endeavour to do so if there is greater interest.

EXTRA NIGHTS

 

In the past many delegates chose to either arrive early or stay on after the meeting in Cusco. Please be aware that we do not hold any hotel reservations outside of the conference period. However, we are happy to put you in touch with our in-country agents who can help you in this regard.  Hotel prices do drop outside of our meeting dates as the meeting has been planned to occur over the Festival period. If you are staying extra nights it is also worth trying to source accommodation yourself. Most Cusco hotels are on the internet and easily accessible.

 

CME

 

Past meetings were accredited for MOPS points by the Australasian College for Emergency Medicine and CPD points by the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists. We will be applying for this again in 2013.
