Juan was an exceptional guide. He was patient for all of our picture taking. Our trek around the lagoons was supposed to be 45 minutes. I’m sure we were up there for an hour and a half. Never a bad photo op. Also he took random photos and videos of us on the mountain and then sent them to us. What a great surprise to get that. Indeed, above and beyond what we would have expected from a guide. Richard, our driver was great and after a long day he got us back to Cusco in record time. The hike is arduous for anyone, even if you are in shape. The horses got us up the mountain quickly and we weren’t fatigued by the long hike. I highly recommend taking the horses. Our horse guide walked up the mountain guiding the horses along the terrain. He might have been in his late 60s and moved like a champ. Also by being on horseback we were up the mountain before all the hikers we met at the trail head which afforded us pristine pics with no people. All in all Juan ran a great operation. I highly recommend him but even more no matter who you go with GO ON THIS TRIP!! You will not regret it and memories forever.

Together with my friends Carol and Carla, I experienced an unforgettable journey: a horseback ride to the 7 Lakes of Ausangate, guided by the amazing Nikool from Peru Hike. This adventure was more than just a scenic tour – it was a deep connection with nature, the mountains, and ourselves. Riding through breathtaking landscapes filled with snow-capped peaks, glaciers, and herds of alpacas, every step felt magical. The lakes, shimmering in shades of turquoise, emerald green, and deep blue, looked like mirrors reflecting the spirit of the Andes. Our guide Nikool was truly incredible – knowledgeable, kind, and always encouraging us to enjoy the experience to the fullest. Her passion for the mountains and her connection to the local culture made this journey even more meaningful. Thank you, Peru Hike, for such a well-organized and authentic experience. And thank you, Carol and Carla, for being the perfect travel companions on this soul-nourishing adventure.
