Pisco Climb - I had a great experience climbing with Andean Summit. Our guide, Celestino, was very professional. They gave me a fair price for the trip.

Friendly and safe experience, but with some caveats. Recommend. - My partner and I used them to book our summits. Overall, the company was very friendly, accommodating, and provided overall good experiences. However, there are some naunces. My partner ha the difficult request of wanting to complete the Pisco summit in 2 days rather than 3 and unfortunately the 2nd customer who was going to do it dropped out. The company was willing to continue the summit. We didn't understand that his guide was a guide-in-training and didn't speak English. I've been forcing my partner to learn Spanish for the past 3 years so it was a great learning experience for him and fortunately the summit went well without any safety issues. My summit of Matteo since is less challenging, had a lot more customers and certified guides. My guides were super friendly, on-time, and accommodating. My only caveat that each customer should educate themselves on each trek or mountain summit to understand what they're signing up for. In addition, each customer should ensure that their guide is certified for their own safety. I highly recommend this company!

Unlicensed agency and guides - Just came back from a Pisco tour booked with Andean Summit. Experience was regrettable.
- brought my gear when I booked. Lady told me my hiking boots were fine (not true), told me I only need to bring breakfast for first day. Not true - bring all but one dinner and breakfast.
- went through a gear check with a guide on day 1. Needed double boots. The ones she gave me were well past expiration date. Zero cushion left. No inner laces on one boot because eyelets all broken. The tops of both boots broke off when trying to tie them - they had clearly been broken and restitched on many times. Guide said he would fix at Refugio but they were unfixable. Walked in boots that were barely on my feet.
- friend’s crampons were broken. Guide had only first aid tape to fix. Gave him my duct tape and super glue, I left my more extensive kit at hostel because I expected guide to be prepared.
- agency told me on day 1 of trip that our 3-day climb would be 2 days because the guide had another excursion starting on day 3.
- the guide kept pushing us to turn back early, starting before we exited the moraine field (2.5 hours in). The weather was cloudy, views bad, but I felt it had more to do with getting back so he could rest before his next excursion.
I am glad I decided to see how this trip went before booking another expedition.
Know what you are doing before going with these guys. You will get no refresher on technical skills, eg using an ice axe.
