"No separate fee" and "–" mean our cost sheet has no line for it on that trek: either there is no such fee, or every package includes it (the Inca Trail permit, for example, is only sold inside a package). The trek page says which.
Every figure comes from the two comparison pages, where each operator's price links to its own website and each added cost to its source.
