Ascent of Potosi - The ascent of Potosí was an incredible experience. The guides were very friendly and supported us perfectly throughout the three days. We especially recommend José, who was always in a good mood and knew how to motivate us to reach the summit. He also took photos of us regularly, and it was a real pleasure to discover them after the climb. The equipment provided was of good quality and the meals were good. We highly recommend Jiwaki (and the guide José!)

Professional Agency for Huayna Potosi with focus on your safety - The organisation with Jiwaki ran smoothly, from organizing via Whatsapp until the day of the start. The equipment is in good condition, and especially the hardware (axes, …) from renowned brands. Our guide Ivan is very competent and accompanied us through the whole trip perfectly. The camps are in good shape, obviously dont offer any luxury, but we felt comfortable and were very happy with the food, which was delicious. Unfortunately, we couldn‘t try the summit due to bad weather, but especially in situations like this you see the professionalism from agencies. The way how single people like Ivan handled the situation was great, he always was honest, explained the situation and made us aware of risks and chances. We couldn‘t think of a better agency in this regards and can highly recommend the company for everyone, who seeks for safety as first priority.

The best experience! - I had the best time while doing the Huayna Potosi tour! During my hike to the summit my guide was José and he was amazing! He was so patient and encouraging. He kept checking if we were okay and really helped us with every problem. He kept us really motivated and I felt very safe. I couldn’t have made it without him. Also the walk was really cool and the views were beautiful!

José is the best! - I recommend this company so much! Me and my friend did the huayna potosi 3 day climb and it was amazing. Our guide was José and he was the best. When we were really struggling he encouraged us so much saying we can do it! Without his encouragement, kindness and determination for us I’m not we would have reached the summit! He also took loads of pictures of us all the way up! He was great! Ellie and Grace 🫶🏻

Incredible experience and awesome guide named Iván made this challenging summit so worth it! - The highlight of my Bolivia trip, especially thanks to my awesome guide Iván. Was quite challenging but so worth it! Definitely recommend doing the 3 day tour over the 2 day, the extra day of learning basic mountaineering skills was helpful and gave me the confidence to make it to the top

HUAYNA POTOSI & ACOTANGO BEST EXPERIENCE EVER - The best trip to Huayna Potosí and Acontango...best people, best gear, facilites...defenitely the best company!!! The owner personally review every detail make everything work perfect. In Huayna Potosí they have their own facilities in base camp and the high camp, both are in excellent conditions, and we receive delicius hot meals, snacks , teas. In Acotango I took a individual trip with my own guide, he pick-up me in the hotel snd we travel directly yo Sajama National Park, we expend the night kn a very confortable hotel, snd next day we climb the Acontango 6,053 mts. Incredible Mountain I strongly recommend Jiwaki as the best option!
