Amazing experience ! - Our visit to Rainbow Mountain was incredible! The views were stunning, but what really made the day special was our guide, Fredy. He was kind, attentive, and shared lots of interesting information throughout the hike. I highly recommend taking a horse — it makes the climb easier and lets you enjoy the beautiful Red Valley at the end, which is truly worth it. Thanks again, Fredy, for your support and energy. A must-do experience in Peru!

Mejor guia, Fredy Kruger - The views were great. But all my recognition goes to our guide Fredy Kruger. It was amazing, attentive, fun and very informed. He took wonderful care of me, especially when I had trouble with altitude sickness, giving me oxygen and very valuable advice. I highly recommend it as a guide. 😀

Best tour and guides - From the moment I booked them to the drop off they were amazing. We were with Fredy and Marco which were always helpful but more importantly made the trip fun and interesting. They are bilingual and gave detail instructions in both Spanish and English. Now, the location is something else, this mountain and the hike are stunning. It might take a little effort at the end but totally worth it. I highly recommend booking this tour with them !!
