Isa was a fantastic guide! She was extremely knowledgeable and was helpful to many of the people in my group as we hiked up to the lake! I would highly recommend this activity!

Isabel (Isa) was a wonderful and professional guide for a very difficult hike. She was patient and helpful to all hikers in the group. Isa’s positive and encouraging energy made for a fun day. She was very knowledgeable about the sites. Thank you for a great experience!

Isa was a great guide! Full of energy and made sure we had a great hike. Appreciated that she made sure we were prepared for all kinds of weather!

Amazing experience from start to finish which would not have been possible without our guide Isa! Would recommend :)

This was a long hike and I would consider extremely hard. We had Isabel (Isa) as our tour guide. I want to express my gratitude towards her she was amazing. Very patient and attentive. She was constantly making sure we were okay. I wouldn't have been able to get up there if it wasn't for her. She was very knowledgeable on the history of the lake and was very informative as well. Shout out to Isabel (Isa) she was great!!!

The Humantay Lake hike experience was amazing. The guide was really amazing and very helpful.

The guide was kind and patient as I struggled with this hike! Would highly recommend.

This trip was so incredible! A few things to be mindful of is the time element, as this lake is roughly 3 hours away from Cusco, so we left at 4:00 AM and got back at around 4 PM after the hike. Breakfast and lunch were included, but definitely bring snacks for during the hike. The hike itself can be challenging and hiking poles are recommended. The hike took us about 3 hours up and 2 hours down, and most of the trail is at a 35-40 degree slope filled with scree, so pretty slippery and hard on the knees. I had some chocolate to keep my energy up and would recommend a full water bottle with electrolyte solution too. Before the main uphill section, there is a horse farm where you can rent a horse to help take you up if you wish, which is a nice option if you want, I think it was around 80-100 soles. The lake itself was beautiful and the reflection of the mountains in the water was an amazing sight to see. There were lots of people at the lake, so the earlier you go the better your visit will be due to less crowds. I did it as part of a small group tour with new friends and doing it with people was so much fun (overcome and endure the hike together, we could motivate each other and encourage others). I really enjoyed my experience! A hard but great day hike!

We had Luz leading our hike and she was amazing. She made sure everyone in the group was comfortable, checking in with us on the ride there, and staying with us to encourage us throughout the hard hike. She was the best!!

Luz was our guide for the day and she was great! Helped motivate the group for the hike and made sure we were well prepared. Would do another hike or activity lead by her!
