Highly Recommended - I highly recommend going to visit Humantay Lake with Happy Gringo. Lake Humantay is one of the most stunning places we have ever seen and well worth trek. Our tour guide, Marko was amazing. Truly the best tour guide we have ever had anywhere in the world. He is very knowledgable and thoughtful. We took the tour with our two boys aged 13 and 9 and Marko was incredibly patient and took to explain things the boys would find interesting. Saul. the driver was also amazing. He did an tremendous job of driving us safely on some very treacherous terrain. We totally recommend Happy Gringo.
