Review of the Humantay Lake tour from Cusco, with high-altitude hiking advice, meals, transport, costs, and practical booking tips.
“We had almost two hours of riding the ATVs and it was so much fun! Thankfully they were automatic vehicles so we didn’t have to worry about switching gears when driving up the hill. Be prepared for a dusty ride! Wear a face covering and sunglasses while you ride. The hike itself is VERY DIFFICULT! If you are not a frequent hiker or use to walking at high elevations this tour will be very hard to complete.

Skip Rainbow Mountain’s morning crowds on a 12-hour Cusco tour with a local guide, small-group transport, lunch, snacks, and mountain views.

“é um tour muito legal para conhecer a história da região, vale a pena!”
Paddle Lake Yacumama near Puerto Maldonado at sunrise or sunset, with caimans, macaws, aguaje palms, transport, guide, and canoe included.
“The tour was really great! Our guide gave us a lot of explanations, we saw a lot of caimans and the sunset on the lake was incredible! But this agency is not trustworthy: poor communication and pick-up cancellation less than 4 hours before the meeting time. Better book with a local agency directly in Puerto Maldonado, like the one they subcontract to.”
Pick a ridge, a river or a kitchen.
