Great experience - Amazing tour and it was not as busy in the off season! Many bathroom stops along the way (cost 2 soles each time to use - but you get toilet paper and running water!) Tour guides are good at making sure group is okay

Best Trip Ever - This is by far the best trip of my life. It was actually quite difficult due to the oxygen level, but very beautiful view on top. And memorable trip.

Breathtaking! Literally. Lol - This tour was amazing! Although it was very much a challenge breathing through the elevation it was so worth it! Anabel was our tour guide and he made it very fun and was patient as we hiked it at our own pace! Thank you again for accommodating me with my sickness on the drive! I appreciate it so much! Totally worth it seeing those views at the top!

Incredible & Unique Experience - This hike was much harder than my wife and I expected, but it was well worth it. Our guide, Ruben, was just incredible from the beginning to the end. He pushed us during the difficult parts of the hike, and was a great guide during the car ride and easier hiking parts. The whole day was a unique experience, the 2 meals were incredible and our group was a lot of fun. The elevation was the hardest part, breathing for the last half of the hike was difficult.

Magnificent - I am not sure if this was the same tour I took from Lllas Inn where I was stayed. Absolutely fantasitc tour, they will pick you up at the hotel provide a blanket and two meals. Okay I speak very little spanish but the main guide Christian ( I hope the name is right:):) He specially translated for me in English and always helped me especially I was almost given up few times :):) He gave me an encouragement to go on so I did. He even helped me by hands . He took my photo that is the thing when you travel alone nobody would help to take my photo but yes if you asked then they will .Very friendly comfortable tour. On top of that it is worth clibing up all the way up to see this BEAUTIFUL NATURE. You deserved to see a beautiful earth because of our earth has been changing due to dlimate changing so better go book this one day tour and make friends . I made many friends even I could not make communicates but with heart!! It's a beautiful thing. Thank you Christian Thank you Monica Thank you to all!!

Great trip - Great trip. Well organised and great guide. Transport on time. The walk was quite easy but would recommend wearing sensible shoes or not trainers/ flip flops.

Rainbow Mountain - Worth the hike! - Rainbow Mountain is a must see in Peru! Never experienced anything like it. The hike is not for the faint of heart, but the views at the top were breathtaking and so worth the trek up! Anibal was an excellent tour guide and made the trip that much better! Highly recommend!

Amazing views and great tour. - Dario our guide was so patient and helpful for all of us, we had a small group and came slightly later than the morning rush so we could take our time going up and had time to take photos at the top. Very tough but so worth it!
