Visiting the Rainbow Mountain is really just a hike, and neither the hike nor the long drive are the type of outing that benefits from a private tour. You are likely better off booking a group one. Additionally, while both our driver and guide were friendly, their English was very limited, meaning that there really wasn't much insight provided. The drive to Rainbow Mountain does not feel safe. You are high up on unpaved/barely paved roads, clinging to sides of mountains for much of it. Moreover, I don't think our driver was driving on these roads or taking these turns at a safe speed. At one point, we tried to pass a tour bus on one of these narrow, unpaved roads, to which I had to very firmly ask that he not, and just let the tour bus (which was going at an acceptable speed given the safety of the road) be. While he initially backed off, he then sped past the tour bus anyway. I don't think he or the guide understood enough English to grasp what I was asking, as the guide thought I was complaining about altitude headaches. Re the hike itself, while my partner was fine, the high elevation (higher than Cusco) really affected me, making even slight inclines of the hike very strenuous. The scenery is beautiful, even if most of the online pictures are edited/saturated. Just make sure to wear layers. It's especially cold on the final ascent. Also, the restaurant after the hike is a somewhat rundown small town in the middle of nowhere, and it's just a buffet that other larger tour groups will also be at. I would have expected an actual sit-down place given that it was a private tour.

I didn’t have to worry about a thing! This company was amazing to work with! Thank you Yoseth for answering all of my questions, even at 4am! Every night they would send the itinerary for the following day. The night before Machu Picchu, they sent the bus, train, and entrance tickets to me. Everything was included, including the entrance fee at Humantay Lake and a private guide at Machu Picchu. I would definitely recommend this company to anyone visiting Cusco! Thanks so much for making my experience in Cusco a great one!

Overall if you have an inkling of wanting to see Rainbow Mt. (Montana Vinikunka) and ride ATVs this one is for you. Don’t be afraid, the crew gave us helmets, the “basics” and some “practice time”. After that the views, vistas, and awesome surroundings grab you hard! From alpacas grazing on the slopes to the snow capped Andes, and finally the extremely unique colors of the “Rainbow” Mt. We climbed up to the top of the adjoining Mt. To take awe inspiring photos of the rare surroundings. Riding the ATVs was the frosting on the day. While the best laid plans can sometimes go awry, Dino and his crew saved the day and gave us an unforgettable experience.

The destination is wonderfull. Not so crowded and very peaceful. The hight is challenging. Would have helped if the guide did not leave the oxigen in the car which was promised to be available during the tour. We went up ot 5000 m. But fortunately we had no real need of oxigen. I very much liked the size of our group. We were just 5 people that day with our guide plus our driver.

It was an incredible trip! the scenery was so beautiful, the people were wonderful, the food was great every day. our main guide Gregory was so funny and passionate he helped us feel connected with the environment the local people and the history of the place. overall It was a once in a lifetime adventure and I would highly recommend the tour Machupicchu with chullos travels for anyone who wants to explore Perú and Machupicchu (and ask for Gregory!)

Gregory was an amazing guide help us all the way and wonderful person. Recommend him because of his knowledge, kindness and simplicity.

Myself and my partner booked this trip last minute and it was so worth the money. We started at 4:30am and back in Cusco by 4pm which suited us perfectly. Our tour guide Heber Forever 💯 was great. His English was excellent and gave us great information on the lake and took some great pictures!

I loved my experience, with Machu Picchu Journey. I started my roaming in Lima and ended in Cusco. I had a quality service where the company and the guides were responsive to my needs, which allowed me to live a quality experience and discover this beautiful country that is Peru and its riches.

We had a wonderful hike up to Lake Humantay. Yesica and our driver were fantastic! We started very early at 3:30 AM, but it was worth it. We were the first to arrive at the lake, breakfast, and lunch. Yesica was extremely attentive and professional. She made sure we stopped to catch our breath when needed and guided us through the entire hike. As a bonus, she was an amazing photographer as well! Thank you Yesica, you captured memories for a lifetime! We highly recommend them for your tour of Lake Humantay.

Excellent shorter hike to an active archeological site a little less visited. We did this hike a couple days after Huana Picchu and my wife and I disagree as to which was harder. Regardless the hike was still little on the difficult side after only 5 days at altitude but definitely doable. My 11-year old loved it despite the early rise. Beto, our guide was fun and very informative. As well as learning about the site we were taught about native plants and their medicinal purposes. The views along the hike and at Waqrapukara itself were some of the most incredible I’ve seen.

I booked a 5 day tour package with Machu Picchu Journey from Jan 31-Feb 4th. This tour package included a Cusco city tour, Machu Picchu, Humantay Lake, and Rainbow Mountain. Right before I landed in Cusco, there were strikes, and the trains to Machu Picchu were not running. From airport pick-up to drop-off at my bus terminal, they were very accommodating and flexible. They tried really hard to ensure that I got the best experience possible- including coming up with a few options so I could do Machu Picchu. I needed a day off to rest and recovery after Humantay Lake and they were able to reschedule without any difficulties.

I absolutely recommend this agency! the organization was perfect! everything went perfectly and this is thanks to Yudith our main guide. thank you very much to her for her availability and her perfect organization

We had a great trip with Richard! He patiently waited with us for the clouds to clear and for us to get a good view of Machu Picchu, for over an hour. In that time he had lots of entertaining facts to keeps us occupied. Would highly recommend.

I had an excellent experience. Everything was well organized and all of the tour guides and drivers were very friendly and knowledgeable. Everywhere I visited in this tour was amazing. I strongly recommend this tour!

We did the 7 lagunas tour and it was an amazing trip, Javi our guide was very patient and supporting towards the whole group. The landscape is amazing and we had great view on the glaciers around us.
