I took a tour to the Rainbow Mountain with the agency Rainbow Mountain Peru; everything was great, thank you for everything.

Booked this excursion following a three day trek in Machu. I was exhausted and had actually made a plan to cancel it and to just take a day off from adventuring. The thought of getting up at 4am and another long car ride did appeal to me Then again, I thought when else will I have this opportunity? So I went I booked through SAM travel Peru. They are so well planned giving me a carefree feeling for all of my Peru adventures It was freezing cold! But I had dressed for it, just not prepared for a trek at 16,000+ feet. The first quarter mile almost wiped me out. But my guide, Cesar, was so knowledgeable in treating my exhaustion and the adjustment to the altitude, giving me some sort of local remedy that remarkable helps almost instantly. Incredible. For the entire journey, Cesar gave us incredible insights to the location, the history of its local people, and kept the pace super slow so we could enjoy it more, thanks you Cesar Siccos and our amazing driver Zadam. It is a beautiful sight. The colors, the glacier, the vibrant locals. Amazing experience It wasn’t too much of a climb But do get there early, it gets really busy

Had the most amazing day at Vinicunca & Valle rojo - challenging walk but worth it for the insane landscapes. Hilton our guide was super informative, helpful and patient along the way. It was a pleasure the spend the day with him.

My cousin and I booked the Rainbow Mountain tour through Sam’s Travel to celebrate our 50th birthdays, and we couldn't have asked for a better team than Liz Montesinos and Abdul. Even with a 4:00 AM hotel pickup, they both arrived with cheerful, high-energy attitudes that set a great tone for the day. While the hike itself isn't incredibly long, the altitude is a serious challenge. Liz was incredibly patient, hiking right alongside us and cheering us on the entire way. She never rushed us when we needed to stop and catch our breath, and she was always ready with tea to help us manage the elevation. Abdul is a phenomenal driver. The roads to the trailhead can be tricky, but he navigated them like a total pro, making us feel completely safe so we could rest before and after the trek. If you are planning this bucket-list hike, especially for a milestone like a birthday, I highly recommend requesting Liz and Abdul. Their professionalism, kindness, and genuine care for their guests made our 50th celebration unforgettable!

So much effort. Great show of nature. Too many people on top

Came back to write a review to try help others, like previous reviews helped me. So in the aftermath, it was beautiful, the views are very impressive. We took the tour with the ATVs, definitely worth it since the climb is super hard as it is. I will start by saying that the way to rainbow mountain is around three hours and very bumpy. It was very windy, cold and muddy when we got there, so come with your warm clothes, jacket, scarf , gloves, beanie and walking boots and poles if you use them.once we were off the ATVs, there is quite a walk, large part of it is uphill. The air is very thin due to the altitude so this could take time reaching the top. Once there, like all other Peru attractions, it’s very touristy, lots of llamas for photographs, food vendors etc. the view all along was very beautiful. We were lucky to have good weather but that’s just luck..

It was an amazing experience! Unfortunately I got altitude sickness but the guides were always very attentive and yet I could enjoy the beautiful views, thank you Justin and Yuri for an amazing experience!

An amazing and unforgettable experience. The Mountain of Colors is simply spectacular, each view worth the effort of the hike. Everything was well organized and the guide was very professional. Fully recommended

Day with Gilthon exciting and very well organized, tasty breakfast and lunch, clear and reassuring explanations! Oxygen if needed, thank you for this experience

It’s a long day trip from Cusco. 2h start at 5am. Stop for breakfast and then another 1 to reach the car park. Options are long trek up, horse or motorcycle. I opted for the motorcycle which goes to the summit along a separate route. Cost about US$30 for the return trip. Weather was changeable with sun, snow and sleet which meant slippery conditions all round. Lots of tourists which means overcrowding on the summit. I agree with some of the other comments about posted photos being potentially photoshopped as colours on the day were no way as bright. You can only spend 10-15 min at the summit before you have to return to your travel party. Overall view was ok but spoilt by overcrowding and changeable weather.
