クスコ発ヒューマンタイ湖ツアー、オールインクルーシブ

Our guide Bryan was so encouraging and fun to hike with! The driver Julio was so kind and a great driver. Overall beautiful hike although the altitude makes it very hard, I definitely recommend it!!

Guide Vladmir was very good, he explained to us the history of this sacred place for the Incas

This hike was a challenge for me, because I'm a little out of shape, but it was so worth it. Lake Humantay is absolutely beautiful and Leonardo and our driver were skilled in their efforts to deliver us safely to all of the destinations on the tour. The vegetarian breakfast and lunch were delightful. Upon reaching the lake, the shades of brown and teal were a stunning delight against a snow-capped mountain.

Truly a 10/10 experience. This is a real hike so definitely wear hiking shoes and layers. Food and transportation was included which makes everything so much easier. This place is gorgeous!!

Eduardo gave us the team name of Team Sexy Llamas, and we were absolutely here for it! It was easy to find our group every time. We went to the same spot for breakfast and lunch, both of which were delicious and plentiful. It also had a gorgeous mountain view and clean bathrooms. Our driver Nicholas was also fantastic at navigating the difficult turns up the mountain. When we finally started our hike, we were given hiking sticks to assist us. Eduardo was great to chat with during the way up, making jokes and sharing information about the Humantay lake and Peru. The trail in the beginning was tolerable but for the more difficult steep incline section up the mountain, we had the option to rent horses for 80PEN which we gladly took. The way down was much easier on foot for everyone and the horse option is not available. Once reaching the lake, we had about an hour to explore, take photos, and rest. The lake was so beautiful and worth the hike. Eduardo took this time to give a history lesson for the entire group. He also helped a party member that was struggling with altitude sickness by giving her an oxygen tank from his backpack. He met us back down the mountain at the bus, and constantly counted to make sure everyone was both safe and accounted for. Would absolutely recommend this exact itinerary to anyone interested in visiting!

The experience was wonderful from the guides, driver, and meals provided. One of the coolest places I’ve been to. Horses are an option for those who can’t hike, so wear boots as there was a lot of horse manure on the way down.

They canceled on me last minute. Woke up at 2AM for no reason. Very unprofessional and was one of my main reasons for visiting this destination. Avoid booking with them.

You must see it. The views you admire along the route—along with the ever-changing weather—make for an unforgettable experience.

It was an okay tour overall, but I would strongly recommend not doing this unless you are well acclimatized to high altitude and reasonably fit. I chose the horse option, assuming it would make things easier. However, even walking short distances at this altitude was quite difficult and caused breathing issues. There is still walking involved before and after the horse ride (from the bus parking to the horse point, and from where the horse drops you off to the lake), and the altitude makes it more challenging than expected. The group I was with was much more advanced and not very supportive, although people from other groups were kind enough to check on me. At one point, a girl sprained her ankle, and the guide asked other participants for painkillers, which was surprising as I expected basic first aid to be included. Regarding the horse ride — instructions were minimal, and the system is different from what many may be used to. During the ride, another participant dropped a bottle which spooked my horse. I tried asking for help (in the little Spanish I knew), but didn’t receive any assistance at that moment, and we continued the journey. Later, the horse veered off route and threw me off. Thankfully, I was not injured, but the response I received was that I should have held on tighter, which didn’t feel very supportive. I also felt that the horses were overworked or not properly cared for. When they stopped, possibly to rest, the handler was hitting the horse to keep it moving, which made me uncomfortable about using this option. Later, another guide mentioned that someone from his group had previously suffered a fracture and had to be taken back to Cusco, which raises concerns about overall safety preparedness. By the time we reached the top, it was cloudy and crowded, and I couldn’t fully enjoy the experience. Throughout the tour, I felt judged for struggling, even though altitude affects everyone differently. I was otherwise fine in Cusco, but this was a completely different level. I would say this tour is better suited for those who are already well acclimatized and comfortable in high-altitude conditions. Otherwise, it can be physically and mentally overwhelming.

It was an incredible hike with so much to see! It is difficult if you’re not a hiker so I def recommend riding the horse up. The families that rent them are really kind and help guide you up. Our tour guide Joel was amazing and so kind. He consistently checked in on us the whole time to ensure we were having a great time!
