Lifetime experience! 10/10 - An unforgettable adventure! The Rainbow Mountain trek was incredible, with stunning scenery and adorable llamas and alpacas along the way. Huge thanks to Machu Picchu Tours and our fantastic guide John for making it a truly special experience.

Unforgettable! - Perfect tour, unforgettable experience with the guide Jose! We have chosen a private tour and that gave us nice opportunity to make some stops in beautiful places on the road to Rainbow Mountains. The tour starts early, but we had a nice breakfast and lunch in a local restaurant. I suggest you to take horses nearby the mountain, to make the track easier and more fun. On the way back we went by step and it was a nice journey despite the rain. Jose helped us a lot to survive the high point and also made a lot of photos with Rainbow Mountains View! All the trip was very safety and calm! We appreciate "Machu Picchu Tours" for this journey! It was our second trip with the agency, and everything was super!

Excellent 💯 - Thank you Jose, for being so patient organized and very informative we really enjoyed our adventure towards the mountain of colors. Without your help, it wouldn't have been possible to complete it. The service completely filled my expectations, I am left with nice memories of Machu Picchu Tours agency as all their team are very professional and completely friendly.

A fascinating journey - I want to deeply thank Albert our guide and Machu Picchu Tours for the impeccable organization towards the Mountain of Colors. I will be very happy to recommend Machu Picchu Tours to all who want to go to Peru, I hope to return in the future and visit other places that I could not. Definitely 6 days In cusco was not enough.

A very organized trip - Impress yourself, we had no idea what was so wonderful! A very organized, very informed and charismatic Guide. The walk was a bit difficult, but nothing that can’t be fixed with some extra stops. We had a great time watching the amazing views!

Amazing views - Today was not the best day to visit the mountain of colors but still in moments we could see clearly the mountain of colors and take advantage of the photos. The climb was very challenging and the cold cold intense. Despite all the challenges we had we reached the top without any problems. Thank you Machu Picchu tours for such an amazing experience.

Beautiful place - The hike to the mountain is certainly not easy but worth it. It's a place that doesn't seem real. Thank you for such a nice Machu Picchu Tours experience.

Amazing experience!! - At the begginig i was a little bit nervous to do the Rainbow Mountain, 'cause i've heard it was challenging for the altittude, and yeah, it really was, but it completly worth it... I got a little bit sick during the trek, it may be 'cause i'm not use to hike like this, but the amazing assitance of this guys from Machupicchu tours gave me was realiving.
