Qampa was such an amazing experience! Urbano, our guide, was friendly, knowledgeable, and looked after us well. Our chef and horse driver, Niko and Angel, made the trip even better and were also very friendly. The food was great, and the mountain was gorgeous! Definitely at a challenging altitude, but easily worth it all!

Amazing expedition for first timers
The experience was great! It was our first time attempting a glacier summit on such an altitude and dealing with all the gear (crampons ropes etc) and we had no problems, guides were really helpful, explained everything and helped us set up. The expedition consisted of 4 participants and there were two guides with us.
The provided food was great, there was a lot of variety and it was tasty.
We managed to get the summit, the most difficult to deal with was the altitude. It helped a lot to acclimatise before. We spent some time in Cuzco and did the Salkantay trek before that.
Camp was set up very comfortably, there were tents with air mats provided, already waiting for us at the camp. Even the portable toilet set up at the camp was very comfortable and clean.
Apart from the summit, the route on the first day was also very pleasant and covered the lakes of Ausangate which were very beautiful.
Generally I strongly recommend the experience, the value for money was very high, I do not really have any complaints about the organization.

Successful Summit Experience
Our experience with the Qampa 2-day summit was amazing! Our head guide, Urbano, made sure we were well briefed and prepared for the experience. The entire team - assistant guide, porters, and cook - were very friendly and made each moment fun. The food was delicious.
Each member of our group (there were 3 of us) made the summit successfully. We felt safe at all times. We learned more about walking/climbing on snow/ice and using rope systems. If you have a good fitness level and are looking for an adventure off the beaten path, I highly recommend this tour.

The Best Trip I’ve Ever Taken – Absolutely Unforgettable!
I recently completed my first glacier mountaineering tour with ice climbing on Nevado Qampa, and I can honestly say it was the best trip I’ve ever made. The scenery was unexpectedly beautiful, and the level of service went over the top.
A huge thank you to Guide Urbano, Chef Benigno, and Horse Driver Angel – they were incredible throughout the entire tour. The cuisine prepared by Benigno was outstanding, and the team’s support made everything manageable even though the altitude really impacted endurance.
The trek itself was challenging but very well executed, and I felt completely safe under Urbano’s guidance. I had done 4 days of acclimation in Cusco before the climb, which helped a lot, though I would recommend even more time at higher altitude if possible. Despite a few mild headaches during and after the climb, the experience was absolutely worth it.
I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone looking for a first-class glacier mountaineering experience – it exceeded all my expectations!

Awesome Climb
I had an amazing two-day mountain tour to Nevado Qampa in Peru. Everything was perfectly organized, and I experienced so much along the way.
Our guide was knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure I felt safe and comfortable at all times. The landscapes were breathta-king, with stunning mountain peaks, deep valleys, and impressive glaciers that made the experience even more special.
I highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a safe and unforgettable adventure in Peru!

Perfect 2 day hiking trip to Ausangate
I went on the short 2 day
Ausangate Trek, and I can’t say enough positive things about my experience! I’ve done many guided hikes with other agencies, and I’ve never met a guide so passionate about their work, the mountains, and sharing their culture. My guide, Chino, was also a great photographer, helping with poses and capturing the memories from the weekend. The food was delicious, and I’m not sure how they were able to create such healthy and fun options in a tent. The sleeping gear was also good quality. This views are amazing in Ausungate, and it is well worth the walk. We got to see 12+ lakes, glaciers, alpacas, and several mountains. This is a nice option if you’re tight on time, and I wish I could’ve had more time to do the 5 day version with this agency :)

Made my first multi day hike a pleasant one
The meals were always a spectacle and tasted great
Never had a shortage of water or food
Extra duffel bags were carried by horses so you can over prepare
Tents and sleeping bags were set up for you
All we had to do was enjoy the hike and our experience
Inspired me to do more multi day hikes

Good refund policy
After having bad food poisoning, this company showed a very solid refund policy, only keeping the funds they had already committed to the expedition themselves. Very good.

Great company!
Really nice experience. I was in Cusco for 6 weeks and this was my favorite tour that I did! The guides were very experienced and made me feel safe! The food was also really good and they made us a cake when we got back from the summit!! Such a fun adventure if you are looking to try mountaineering for the first time.
