Amazing day out to the mountains - This trip is absolutely worth doing while in Cusco. Value for money with a long day out visiting Rainbow Mountain and fabulous food. Most of all we cannot speak more highly of the fantastic team and staff but especially Anibal. Their guidance, support and knowledge made the day. Thank you for a wonderful day out.

Our guides were... - Our guides were excellent. They provided us with lots of information along the drive and during the hike. They were also very supportive of everyone in the group, as the hike is tough due to the altitude! The provided meals were very good.

Intense but worth it - This experience is intense. The altitude is no joke. Our guides were super friendly and encouraging, had it not been for them I wouldn’t have made it to the top. Pack water, gloves, a poncho , coca candy, and soles. You got this👍🏾

Absolutely beautiful hike and rewarding scenes - Challenging but such a rewarding trek and experience, especially with such a warm and trusting guide like Rubin. If you’re able to make the hike, I highly recommend spending the day venturing to the mountains and seeing this natural beauty and a glimpse of how locals live. The hike is steep at times but take your time and enjoy the majestic views.

Ruben and Alex are awesome!!! - Absolutely amazing experience! Our driver Alex got us everywhere safely (the roads are no joke!) and our guide Ruben went above and beyond to make sure we had the best (and safest) experience! Cute and yummy place for breakfast and lunch was an added bonus. It was my friend’s birthday and they made it super special for her. Ruben made sure we took breaks when we needed to, and he even measured our oxygenation to make sure we were ok. They picked us up right from our hotel and even dropped us off back there since we had a small group. Definitely a can’t miss experience!
