Overview

Join us on this epic day trip away from the city and immerse yourself in nature with the most beautiful landscapes you can imagine, whether you are traveling alone. As a couple or in a larger group, we have daily departures and we accommodate your needs. This tour is designed for travelers with little time and great physical resistance.

Throughout the route, the difficulty varies from moderate to challenging, which is mainly due to the altitude that exceeds 5000 meters. We recommend that you spend a day or two in Cusco to acclimatize before joining one of our tours.

We know that the Rainbow Mountain is usually full of tourists, so we start our adventure very early so that we are the first to arrive. This way, you can enjoy the tranquility and beauty without many interruptions. We take our time and enjoy the hike with no pressure.
