I'm glad we could join this group because it arrives at rainbow mountain before all the other groups. Meaning we had the place for ourselves and even some good light for pictures. AWESOME!!! As we headed to the red valley after visiting Vinikunka, we saw all the groups arriving and hundreds of people hiking up. Organization was without any problems and our guide Jacob was awesome and chill! Good food afterwards. We plan to go on more trips with visitsouthamerica.co on our next adventures :D

Participamos en la montaña sin experiencia, fue una actividad difícil pero termina emocionado. Nuestro guía Galileo era un gran motivado en cada paso y tenía mucho paciencia cuando nos cansamos. La montaña está 3 horas de Cusco. Galileo y el driver Mario llegó a nuestro Airbnb a recogernos a las 3 am para ser unos de los primera gente a llegar. Cuando llegamos nosotros fue los primeros de estacionar. Comimos desayuno que Galileo y Mario nos dio antes de la caminata. Después de la montaña comimos almuerzo criollo que estaba espectacular. Recomiendo la experiencia 100%.

HIGHLY recommend this tour. It was well worth doing the sunrise morning tour. As we were leaving the mountain, there were so many tourists arriving. We had the trail and mountain all to ourselves to take our time enjoying the views and capturing pictures. Ricardo was an excellent guide and provided us with information about the mountain, Cusco, and Peru in general. He was encouraging and supportive on this challenging hike - making sure we had enough breaks and were good to go! Also recommend checking out the red valley. Even though we were tired it was well worth the extra 30 minute hike! Yurghen was a great driver. There is a very winding steep road to get there (would also recommend to pack some Dramamine for this!) we always felt safe and comfortable navigating through these difficult roads. We had a great breakfast and an awesome lunch spread. Truly amazing and so glad we did this while in Cusco!!!
