Nice experience on rainbow mountain and red valley - The whole experience was definitely super recommended. Joel was able to explain all the track details and give recommendations both for reaching the rainbow mountain and red valley - which is a bonus during the excursion.
All the day went definitely smooth and especially the red valley view was breathtaking!

Mountain of Colors - The very good experience, from the beginning of the day, I was safely removed to the hotel. Very good breakfast and lunch too. But especially the guide Amoroso very good, knows a lot, gave us the necessary indications and always kept an eye on everyone, especially those who needed it most. Freddy is a great guide, he made the experience more bearable, easy and cute.

Of the best experiences - Experience to repeat although it snowed. The landscapes look like they're out of a painting. The food and guide that accompanied us “Popeye” was wonderful.

Worth the Work Getting to the Top! - I joined the Rainbow Mountain tour with amazing guide, Edwin, September 2025. Edwin and driver was right on time for my 4:30am pickup. After we pickup up other guests, our group enjoyed the most beautiful scenery before our first stop, which included a buffet breakfast. I was impressed the amount of fresh fruit and healthy items that were available. The ride to Rainbow Mountain once again had breathtaking scenery. Edwin explained how the rest of the day go in Spinsh and English, as well as providing information about the Sacred Valley, the river, the people, area and mountains we would visit.
The hike was no joke. I opted to walk all the way to the top and with the altitude, I can say it was most difficult for me. Edwin was with me the whole time encouraging me and making sure I was OK. I made it!
There were crowds, but enough breaks for photos.
The weather was perfect. We could see the mountain and surrounding mountains clearly. Beautiful!
I might encourage taking the offer of a mule, horse or bike, to give yourself more time to explore. However, if you want a good workout, this will do it!
Lunch after visiting the mountain was very good. Better than many other tours I have joined in Cusco.
It was an experience I highly recommend.
