The majesty of the lagoon is the reward - The experience although physically hard, is too wonderful, there is no photo that can match what is appreciated there. Wally, our guide was very friendly, and gave us a nice ceremony.

Absolutely stunning — but be prepared, it's tough - We did the private tour to Humantay Lake and got some of the most breathtaking photos we’ve ever taken. The scenery is unreal — definitely one of the highlights of our Peru trip. That said, this hike was extremely difficult for me personally. Even with a horse and walking sticks (which the guide thankfully helped arrange), I struggled a lot due to altitude sickness and motion sickness from the long drive. The air is thin, the hike is steep, and even riding most of the way doesn't eliminate the physical toll. I wasn’t able to complete the full hike on foot and felt pretty awful afterward. My girlfriend, on the other hand, loved the hike and found it manageable. She also really appreciated our guide, who was supportive, knowledgeable, and made sure we were as prepared as possible. In short: this is a must-do if you're physically ready and properly acclimated — but don’t underestimate the challenge. Bring motion sickness meds, stay hydrated, and definitely take the walking sticks and horse if you're unsure. It’s worth it for the views, but go in knowing what you're signing up for.

Very nice experience - Very nice experience, very fun our Wally guide and super recommended. The only observation is the ban driver driving very fast on a route with many curves, sharp braking, which caused several passengers to break down. All the rest of the tour was very nice!

Challenging hike with must-see views of Lake Humantay - Our guide was awesome and helped pace us to the lake. He was very encouraging even when we had to stop at points due to the altitude. It was a beautiful day and had a big challenge in hiking Lake Humantay. Highly recommend this tour, and also using the horses from the local ranch to go up and down part of the way, especially if you’re unsure of your stamina (or footing) climbing the mountain to the lake.
