I’m in Ollantaytambo right now after a similar Qantas/Latam special to Lima.
These specials seem to come up all the time.
You would be crazy to pay $1800.
EDIT: It’s a reciprocity fee (not a fee for a visa). But, it does amount to the same thing. Maybe if Australia didn’t charge $117USD for Chilean’s to visit here (cost for a visa to oz) then we wouldn’t get charged that to visit there.
Mind you, Indonesia caved on Bali.
