Itinerary
Our tour starts at 4:00 am, our transportation picks you up at your hotel in Cusco (central area of Cusco). We will head towards the picturesque town of Mollepata, where you can enjoy a beautiful landscape during the trip. In Mollepata, we will stop to enjoy a delicious breakfast that will give us the necessary energy for the adventure that awaits us.
After regaining our strength, we will continue our journey to Soraypampa, where we will begin the walk to the Humantay Lagoon. During the walk of approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes, you will have the opportunity to appreciate the rich fauna and flora of the region, connecting with nature at its finest. Once at the viewpoint, you will have 30 minutes to marvel at the mountain's stunning colors, ranging from shades of red to blue and green. Our guide will share interesting facts about the cultural importance of this site. The limited time at the viewpoint is due to altitude and health considerations, but it is enough to capture spectacular photos and experience the wonder of 7 Colors Mountain. Then, we will return to Cusipata to enjoy a lunch that will recharge your energy before embarking on the return trip to Cusco.
Once we reach Humantay Lagoon, at an altitude of 4200 meters above sea level, you will be amazed by the intense turquoise color of the water and the impressive panoramic views that will surround you. You will have enough time to enjoy this natural spectacle and take photographs that will remind you of this unique moment.
After enjoying the beauty of the lagoon, we will begin the descent back to Soraypampa. We will meet our transportation and return to Mollepata, where a comforting lunch awaits us to regain strength after the walk.

The agency is very organized; they always maintain communication before the tour. The guides are very special; they have an excellent service attitude and are very attentive to any needs. Our guide Russell was very special; we decided to walk, and he supported us a lot by encouraging us to reach the lagoon, very intelligent and kind.
Very good experience, but it is very, very tiring and difficult. The descent is dangerous and not suitable for people with low fitness, but it is a very beautiful experience.
Our driver, Emilio, was very patient and kind to us, encouraging us when we needed it most. Victor, our guide, was present and willing to help and explain or resolve doubts at all times. We felt very well accompanied, encouraged, and cared for, especially because we took this tour without acclimatizing to the altitude of Cusco. I recommend it 100%

I did several tours: Huacachina, city tour, Sacred Valley, and Laguna Humantay. From the beginning, everything went very well! They respond super quickly, they are attentive to absolutely everything, they keep you informed about the pickup time, and they are punctual. The guides are wonderful, the drivers who pick you up, everyone is very kind! I highly recommend them, and if I return, I would book with them again!
