The best trekking company in Huaraz, I did Huayhuash with them and everything was perfect!
Thank you, Gabriel, for joining us on the Huayhuash Trek in Peru—the most beautiful trekking route in the world. We hope to see you again in the future.
Overall a great experience! The team was very communicative, organized, and ensured everyone had a great time. The hike itself is challenging (especially for those not yet acclimated to the altitude), but extremely rewarding!
Muchas gracias Audrey por escogernos y la confianza para visitar la laguna 69,
Here again we hired an agency but the bus said otherwise. The good but demanding guide. The hike is complex because you are given only 6 hours for the entire journey including breaks. Very beautiful place.
A great experience: despite being quite tired the walk consists of three hours out and three back. However, the reward is indescribable... one of the best landscapes I have ever visited in Peru.
Spectacular lagoon of crystal clear and satisfying waters, offsetting the heavy road to your visit with how iconic and beautiful it is
Very nice place, the place is very cozy, appropriate to spend with family, friends and couples, 100% recommended. Do not hesitate to travel
Spectacular stay. Good and accessible. I was there five days. The room is very clean, has Internet service, hot water all day and breakfast. The attention of the very friendly staff. He guided me on the best options for tours and destinations. Which one to take to acclimatize. I visited Chavin de Huantar, Rocotuyoc lagoon with a lagoon in the process of thawing, the lagoons in Llanganuco and lagoon 69. During the transportation to the destinations, the guide was talking to us about everything, a little about local commerce, the history of Huaraz, its snow-capped mountains and lagoons. He allowed me to stay the last day until the bus left, he boarded me to the station. That adds a lot since he had flexibility in the schedule. I was totally satisfied. 100% recommended.
Couldn't have stayed in a better place. Sheler's hospitality is incredible! The accommodations are comfortable and the breakfast is delicious. He took care of all my trips and I didn't have to worry about anything! I highly recommend Scheler!
Cozy stay. Good and accessible. We stayed three days. The room was very clean, had Internet service and hot water. The attention of the very friendly staff. He guided us about the best options for tours and destinations. We visited Pastoruri, lagoon 69 and Rocotuyoc lagoon. He allowed us to stay the last day until our bus left.🤗 We were very satisfied. 100% recommended.
You would do better to book this tour directly with “Esperanza tours” which is the tour agency that actually takes you to the mountain. The agency here on viator is not directly involved and overcharges with hard currency. Despite the description that promises a “round trip” the journey ends in the city center where they ask all the passengers on board to get off and go home on their own. Added to this, they were late for the early morning pickup which is annoying as they give you a timeframe of 5h-5.20am where you “have to be ready” however they arrived 15 min later.
